In the DVD War Over High Definition, Most Are Sitting It Out [NY TIMES]

[KBG29]

I assume anyone with a dual format player would only buy Blu-ray because each disc is the same price and the Blu-ray version is of higher quality. I aslo said that that would be the case if as mentioned in the artical all companies backed both formats. Aslo realize that in five years from now Blu-ray discs will have a total capacity of 200GB while HD-DVD discs would still be at 51GB. This would allow for full spec bit rates for audio and video for the main feature, plus all of the extra features all on ones disc. At the current moment HD-DVD can not even get full spec on main features.

Yes my whole post is based on made up figures, and in reality I see HD-DVD being killed off by next summer, but I thought I would look at it from a few steps back, and see how dumb mine, and others predictions really are. One last thing to remember is that stores like well all of them are not going to carry, Cars on DVD, DVD SE, HD-DVD, HD-DVD SE, and Blu-ray. Thier is simpily not enough room in a store to cary that many versions of each movie, or even the top sellers.
