This is what is stupid. The whole lure of getting on board a winning format to begin with was to reap a lot of the profits. You know, for every Blu Ray sold, you would get money. But now look: there are so many companies involved, the cost of the players and the movies are plummeting. It seems like a complete waste.

 

And I've heard a strategy that Microsoft is employing, where it deliberately wants both formats to lose, so it can get ahead in the downloadable movies. And that really is the future. I don't think there's any doubt about it. There is little future for hard discs, and certainly not crappy Blu Ray and HD DVD.
