Is VHS vs. BetaMax a fair comparison?
BD and DVD must be compared, as BD aims to replace DVD. What's at issue is whether it will ever accomplish this. I vote no.
There are cheaper, superior media formats at BD's gate; not to mention downloadable HD content and slick upscaling DVD players.
BD won the battle with HDDVD, but what is the prize? My guess is 5-15% market share until it and DVD are replaced by a true quantum leap forward.
