Lawl Indeed...

HD-DVD must be desperate to try and bait in more customers to a dying format.

No kidding... Trying to get the most before the have to call it a loss...

That's some funny shit.

Most defiantly is...

Who cares about 'bonus' features. Last time I watched them I ended up turning them off because they were ruining my enjoyment of the movie...

Blu-ray Dominates Disc Sales Chart Post-Warner AnnouncementThu Jan 17, 2008

The Blu-ray camp took a decisive lead in disc sales for the week ending January 13th, the first full week following Warner's announcement that it would abandon its HD DVD support.

Though Blu-ray has outsold HD DVD in overall disc sales by a factor of nearly 2:1 since the start of 2007, last week saw the largest gulf between the two rival formats yet, with Blu-ray commanding an 85% share of all high-def discs sold.

Home Media Magazine is reporting that of the top ten high-def discs sold on either format, not a single HD DVD disc made the list, with the top-selling HD DVD disc ('The Kingdom') moving only one tenth as many units as the best selling Blu-ray title, '3:10 to Yuma.'

While it's too soon to tell whether Warner's announcement had a direct effect on Blu-ray's stronger-than-ever disc sales lead, HD DVD had been holding steady with a relatively strong 39% share of high-def disc sales in the last weeks of the 2007 holiday shopping season.

Blu-Ray is now selling 85% of all high definition discs! //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif

I still think there's a good chance by the time there's enough base for one or the other to become a dominant format, we'll go to a better way of data storage anyway //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

If flash keeps getting increasingly fast, cheap, and dense, I say why not start putting it on that?

Laserdisc had uncompressed audio, and didn't require HDMI or whatever other acronyms these new generation players need to do it //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif
