The reason Microsoft "went against" BluRay, is because BluRay used JAVA programing, which helped promote OPEN SOURCE.
Instead, Microsoft went with and backed HDDVD which used Microsoft's programing language.
HDDVD died, and for the next generation, Microsoft has no reasonable choice except BluRay.
Microsoft lost that battle long ago.
