This was posted on slashdot the other day and people pointed out that only an idiot would directly compare these two products ... Being that the Pirates movies are newer, are individually packaged at a lower price, and there is a brand new pirates movie in theaters with a huge marketing budget makes this a comparison of Apples to Monkeys.

The only time a comparison would make sense is if the same product is released on both formats for the same price; the only case of that I know of was a the Planet Earth BBC series and the only indication of sales for that has been eproductwars.com which has constantly had the HD-DVD version being ranked higher. Until we have a consistent set of data like this it will be difficult to see how the formats are really doing.
