The Blu-Ray version of 300 outsold the HD DVD version 2:1. I wonder how much Blu-Ray version of Transformers would've sold if Paramount had stayed neutral. That type of movie caters perfectly to the ps3 demographic.

Excuse me, but how is the PS3/Blu-Ray demographic any different than the HD-DVD demographic?

Ps3 owners, or gamers, are more into action flicks with awesome CGI effects.  HD DVD owners tend to represent the more upscale, money conscious consumers that aren't necessarily interested in a movie just because it's full of flashy effects.

This is why 300 on Blu-Ray outsold 300 on HD DVD 2:1, yet Planet Earth on Blu-Ray sold roughly the same as Planet Earth on HD DVD.
