This question didn't offer the opportunity to choose my near-exclusive gaming platform - the desktop PC. I use that daily while my PS2 gathers dust in the TV cabinent.

I agree with those mentioning the lack of PQ/AQ quality as a factor for DVDs a bit odd. I think that this is an increasing factor considering how many posts recently have revolved around DVDs that have video problems and the shift to HD formats. I chose price point, since this is also an issue in regards to the new formats, but this is really secondary to the quality of the transfer.
I also debated if I should answer the video games section, since although I do play games in the 14+ hours category I do not want to see ANN turn into yet another game forum. There are so many other really good games sites that are already established and I don't want to see this site overrun by gamers since there are so few good anime sites.

This is of course complete guess.
But I imagine that that info will help determine better rates on advertisment. Where the more people who visit are also gamers, the more money game ads will be worth.

They probably didn't include the PC since it's not a dedicated gaming platform. I also use my computer for much more of my gaming (due to an addiction to The Sims 2) but my PS2 gets the occasional work out. (Though as often with old PS1 games as PS2. Azure Dreams is an addictive game.)
About the "Which of the following features on Anime News Network do you frequent the most?" I do check the news section every time I come in, but I spend so much time in the forums, occasionally I get news there before it's on the front page! Kind of wish there'd been some dual choice options.

Just curious, why wasn't there a Columns option for the What Do You Use Most question?
For one of the questions, I put Netflix, but I really use Blockbuster.com. Just so you know.
And why wasn't there an Other option for the music question? I mean, the music I listen to the most is Showtunes, but since that isn't there (and usually isn't in these kind of polls), I would have settled for an Other.

Yeah, where was the PC option?

As someone else said, the PC isn't a "video gaming platform", it's a PC, which can be used to play games. Little difference.

What the hell? Country music wasn't listed as among the genres of music to listen to? Did they lump that in with pop?

Is there a way to see my own answers after the fact?(Will forget atleast a few of my own...heh) I think it's the first survey I've done on ANN.
