Curious. I wonder why some movie studios would throw away 33% of their profits (By only publishing Blu-Ray) or 66% of their profits (By only publishing HD-DVD). Doesn't it make sense to just publish to both media formats? They aren't so different... Its just disc-based media, they can probably produce them at the same factories, LOL.

You can not produce them at the same factories, and companies do not like having to produce 2 versions and have them at every store with more chances of having copies that don't sell on one format or the other.   People will convert to HD faster if there is no more confusion.
