I was impressed with the HD-DVD initiative here. Once again competition benifits the consumer. What would Blu-ray cost if they had No competition? So now many people will be watching HD-DVD on the sub $1000.00 42 inch plasma they bought a Wal-Mart. I say HooRah for Joe 6 pack!

Yes I hope it makes all the movie studio's rethink and especially Walt Disney. My grand kids won't be watching any of there movies unless it's Hd .I refuse to buy any do to the fact that we don't have a choice

since sony was involved they tried to monopolize the market which at the time was advanced (beta) ,but on this one its about screwing the consumer with unfinished inferior equipment,not tohave the better product and because the poostation which is the worst selling game console created to date has no games because bluray software is basicly programmer unfriendly there using the numbers to manipulate the consumer to go poo.sony suxx and so does poo-ray

It's not over, until it's over. Since when video must “have one format”?????? Games for gamer junkies have how many? PC, ps3, Wii, XBox, PSP, DS, and so on. Why must video have just “one format”??? No one has ever answered that one.

" the Blu-ray group confirmed to Home Media that it has no intention of running a Super Bowl ad of its own as a response, due mostly to time constraints that would hurt production quality."

Yeah cause superbowls just sneak right up on you. Did Sony not think we were going to have one this year? Or, maybe they are still hurting from the $500 million they had to pay Warner to side with them.

Go Format War! Nobody wins, and the consumers loose. Yeah!
