Forums - Sony Discussion - the Blu-ray thread, will go on untill hddvds death.

None of this really matters. I still buy all my movies in DVD, couldn't care less about HDDVD or Bluray. Even though I have a PS3.

Time to Work !

I do have an HD DVD player because I'm a HT junkie (Anti-HD DVD-is-good-enough Luddites, don't kill me). I guess I'll be keeping that around a little longer.



"Naturally the common people don't want war: Neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, IT IS THE LEADERS of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is TELL THEM THEY ARE BEING ATTACKED, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. IT WORKS THE SAME IN ANY COUNTRY."  --Hermann Goering, leading Nazi party member, at the Nuremberg War Crime Trials

MGM and Columbia count as one since Sony owns them both. If you leave out the smaller studios, like HBO, its dead even.

Universal is actually considering going neutral (IGN stated it in one of their podcasts)

That was a rumor from months ago.

The current rumor is that Lionshead is going neutral, or even exclusive to HD since they have been making tons of money on Markeytplace - something MS is sure to leverage.

How much is "tons"?  I wasn't aware that Marketplace was a large source of revenue on the scale we're talking about.

My advice to fanboys: Brag about stuff that's true, not about stuff that's false. Predict stuff that's likely, not stuff that's unlikely. You will be happier, and we will be happier.
