    I'm wondering if any of the trackers have the 1080i or 720p episodes being added regularly. Alternatively, standard definition x264 would be great, but I think that might still be too futuristic for most.

    For the past couple of weeks I've been getting my Daily Show fix off of Hulu, I have an XBOX 360 and Hulu Plus subscription, so it does make it pretty easy. However, once in awhile I am eager to see the episode a little earlier than they make it available.

    It seems like the Daily Show in HD has been completely abandoned by all. I can only go so far as to watch an XVID on a small computer screen, it looks like shit on my TV so I avoid watching them that way. Since I'd be at a computer anyway, I'd more likely be streaming them than grabbing the XVID. Feel free to troll the show, HD snobbery, or the like, no objections from me about that. I'm pretty hesitant about the tracker world in general, so I'm just putting out some feelers.

    theres tons being added on various sites. Also, x264 SD content is just plain shit IMO. I think x264 is for HD and XviD is for SD. Simple as that.

    All you've managed to demonstrate with that opinion is a lack of knowledge. One could also argue why, in their opinion, having oxygen in our air is shit. It's a type of stance that begs for some sort of supporting fact to avoid seeming clueless.

    Since you weren't able to recognize that initially, let me use an easy analogy that points out how ridiculous your statement sounded:
