| Hus said: you say PS3 owners dont buy Br movies, i prove you wrong.... what do you want. you say Blu-Ray has not really gained much of a lead, se;;ng 9-2 is not mush of a lead... ok there. |
Well the totals according Nielsen VideoScan are 844,000 to 708,600 which gives Blu-Ray 54.36% and HD-DVD 45.64% of the Market; even if they only have 40% of the data the sample size is large enough to say that Blu-Ray has about 55% Marketshare while HD-DVD only has 45% market share. Now in January Blu-Ray sales passed HD-DVD sales because of the release of the PS3 yet Blu-Ray has not extended its lead which implies that both formats have been selling at roughly the same rate since January.
I'll keep the rest simple for you so you'll understand ... Imagine you're a store owner and you had sold 20 gum balls to 15 customers that came into your store; one customer bought 10 gum balls, one customer bought 5 gum balls, two customers bought 2 gum balls and another customer bought 1 gum ball. Now being that 5 of the 15 customers who came into your store bought gum balls would you say that most of your customers bought gumballs that day?
Now, it is likely that sales of Blu-Ray follow a similar pattern to that of the gum balls in my previous example; a small portion of PS3 owers are likely going to buy a large bulk of the movies and then you're going to have a slightly larger portion of owner who buy the rest.
