Blu-ray and HD DVD in Europe http://www.n4g.com/industrynews/NewsCom-47351.aspx#Comments

hddvd no where to be found.

 

Coincidentally I live in europe and there are no problems to find HD-DVD's...

Interesting.  What country are you from if you don't mind me asking?  And, from what you can gather, is there any difference in whether retailers seem to support one format over another?

I'm from Switzerland.

Here DVD's are still the mainformat of course (like in US). Much people don't even now there are new formats. The HD-DVD-and Blu Ray- Players (standalone) are selling very bad. The most People who are buying HD-DVD's and Blu Ray movies are gamer. Movies of this formats you only find in very big electronic stores or in online stores...

I live too in switzerland at La chaux-de-Fonds, here, you have only 3 shop with High def movie, Manora, it have both format, Carrefour it only have BD, and interdiscount and it only have BD... so in my city at least its a lot more hard to get HD-DVD then BD !
