according to this article http://www.afterdawn.com/news/archive/12250.cfm

the bourne ultimatium sold 60,000 copies in hd-dvd, DOUBLE what spiderman 3 sold on blu-ray. What?

somebody correct me if i am wrong but didnt spiderman sell like 100,000 copies its first week.

I guess it should also be noted that these figures are from universal.

This is crazy here is an article from the same website claiming spiderman 3 sold 130,000 copies on bluray. Is it possible that they meant to say "we sold 60,000, blu ray doubled are sales i think we are gaining." What is the deal?

When Sony claimed 130k were sold, they were counting multiple SKU's of the same product (including the 'trilogy' version) - the 'doubling of sales' reference is being used to claim that when comparing single SKUs, Bourne's 60k double Spiderman's 30k.

It's called PR spin - they all suck... :(

You just need to follow the links to 'related articles' to read it all - not that it matters, DVD still trounces all... :P

Thanks for the clarification Talon. Yes, PR sucks.
