Thank you for your time; I hope everyone made the right decision, or at least took into account some of the facts I posted in the previous few pages. As I fore told (and many others have as well), HD-DVD is having its last stand. Blu-ray looks poised to win the battle.

Blu all the way.

in this current moment, blu ray seems to have the advantage and lead over hd dvd. Unless some major movie studios back hd dvd, blu ray will just continue to run over hd dvd like it never existed

in what way HD DVD will triumph? Xbox360 games are still in DVD9, not much people willing to buy the hd dvd add on, at the current stage it shows no sign that M$ will adopt bluray yet, even if HD DVD fails it still doesn't concern their xbox 360 sales so much, people buy X360 not for the movies, but for the games
and technical wise, blu ray offer significantly more storage, which means they can use as many lossless compression stuff as possible

I agree. With the sudden but quick series of events this past month the tables have indeed turned on Toshiba and their HDDVD format. From the market trends, I think we'll see HDDVD concede defeat by Q3 this year, if not sooner.
Everyone's been waiting for a catalyst... and Warner seemed to have brought it.

Blu-Ray might be winning, but HD DVD is here to stay and be loved by 'loyal' consumers...

"The Bourne Ultimatum", "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix" and "Transformers" were the latest release.

While the latest of the latest release is "Zodiac"

"The Invasion" arrives January 29...

"The Brave One" on February 5...

And "special" something in May... biggrin.gif


In fact, 9 Hollywood studios are backing on Blu-Ray, while 7 Hollywood studios on HD DVD. Not too bad eh?

Ermm that list will hold true for now but Warner is already ending its HD-DVD line soon. New Line has announced that as well.

Which leaves 5 for HD-DVD. Who is Weinstein?

Oh yeah hor. Well, it was rumoured that Disney and Buena Vista might support HD-DVD as well. tongue.gif And I think somewhere on the internet got a copy of Reign of Fire (buena vista film) on HD-DVD.

So 3 only lor biggrin.gif Bluray has more. So what does this say? Absolutely nothing.

Until someone throws in the towel and officially say HD-DVD is dead, there is no point speculating about it.
