It's the "PS3 effect" many gamers are going out and buying movies. And after CES and no major releases from Universal then many HD-DVD backers jumped shipped to the PS3 and now claim it's best to stay HD neutral. With movie watchers buying the PS3 attach rates should be low for games. But the movie watchers will be buying large numbers of blu-ray movies which sony will be getting part of the licensing fee from the sale of blu-rays. Universal has shown plans to release more classic movies on HD-DVD since CES but the damage is done. Dvd empire shows almost a 2:1 sales ratio while amazon only shows ranks and not number sold which can be misleading. http://www.dvdempire.com/index.asp?userid=99365259430219&tab_id=60&site_id=69&site_media_id=0
