HD-DVD takes the lead

Nobody has answered a question I have:

What percentage of the total of each in terms of marketshare (for movie formats, e.g. VHS, DVD, HD whatever, VCD, online)?

As far as I'm concerned, there must be a current "numero uno" - that would be DVD (I think!).

Unless Blu-Ray or HD-DVD surpasses DVDs and takes the number one spot in marketshare, the only leader in this war so far is still DVD.

Any other arguments ("Blu-Ray/HD-DVD overtakes HD-DVD/Blu-Ray") is like comparing a grain of sand to a larger grain of sand while DVD represents the entire beach.

 Yes the DVD's have a current market lead. But it is assumed that these HD/BLU sales are in line with the market integration of HD TV's. So sooner or later the question about DVD's will be how long will it be the main format when most houses are able to have an HDTV?

B'sides I have watched upscaled DVD's and HD-DVD and Blu ray's. There isn't even a question that the difference is noticble between dvd's and the next gen formats.
