Lol, if it wasn't for Sony, we wouldn't even have the discussion of HD-DVD vs Blue Ray, because Sony invented the CD-format and was therefore the birthplace for all formats derived from the CD, namely the CD-ROM, DVD, Blue Ray and, yes, even the HD-DVD.
It's also rather funny to see that this discussion is losely based on what Xbox360 en PS3 fanboys have to say. Looking at the numbers (which aren't that dandy for either Blue Ray or HD-DVD) I would say that DVD is still king and that, in a couple of years when HD is settled in, the new prince in the video-kingdom will be the Holodisc or HVD (Holographic Versatile Disc), which will have a single layer capacity of over 300 GB. It's being developed by Hitachi / Maxwell as we speak.
I'm just glad to have my 320 GB recorder underneath my tv with HD Cable Access and will just sit this one out.. :P
