This is the end.

of what? And don't go running into your corner like you always do. Explain yourself.


299$ comes pretty close to mass-market appeal for something that has a Blu-ray player built in it...


Unless the customers are making a coup against blu-Ray. Don't underestimate the power of the consumer to resist an unneccesary format change. But I was really hoping leo-J would clarify exactly what is at an end. Just to get it on the books. Even Nostradamus needed a scribe.


 Why would people buy Hd-dvd en-mass if Blu-ray has the most shelf space and the most movies coming out for it?...

And, don't get to that 'Dvd is the true winner' point... That's just bullshit, just wait 2 years and you'll see that most likely Blu-ray has reached mass-market penetration. That's just a given because people want  to move forward and not stay with one format. Same with LP's - CD's or VHS - DVD's... It takes a while but eventually it WILL happen. And the one with the most support wins. (Blu-ray this time)...


Personally, I have 100 movies in VHS and 100 in DVD, like hell I'm going to add another format.  I'll stick to my VHS/DVD player and eventually may goto Apple TV or the like.  Might as well rent as whatever format you buy it on will just become obsolete in 10 years anyway.
