footbag said: @Mike B I should have specified that Blue-ray blank media is more expensive then HD-DVD. And while you are right that tha average HD-DVD is selling for more then the average Bluray, there is a different reason. The reason I belive those prices are skewed is because the multi disc Sopranos, Matrix's and Planet earth are some of HD-DVD's best sellers. If you look at the average selling price of their regular DVD's they are very similar. It does appear that Sony is willing to take a bit of a hit in margins, to keep the prices low. This appears to be working as they are selling better then HD-DVD. @a.l.e.x59 "Blu-Ray is far superior than HD-DVD. Why go for the lesser quality? Blu-Ray is proven to produce better video quality than HD-DVD." HD-DVD and BR video is exactly the same. Any differences would relate to the model of player your watching it on. |
Actually BluRay can produce better looking video, using the higher bitrate.
