First of all let me ask you, what NEWS exactly are HD DVD people suppose to fear? Blockbuster announcement? Whoopty doo! So I'll be able to rent a blu-ray movie at blockbuster. I'm shakin', especially when you realize that MOST people are renting online these days and they just return the titles to Blockbuter stores, that's what I do and everyone I know does the same. Oh, wait, Blockbuster still offers HD DVD online for rent. Hm, well not so Blu-Ray exclusive now is it. Blu-Ray is PAYING all these companies, just like they paid Target to promote that one BD player, get that in your thick head. That's WHAT RETAILERS do. These people don't stock items, they RENT OUT shelf space.
So more announcements, let's see. Maybe HD DVD group should be fearing that most Blu-Ray exlusive supporters are now getting ready or have released hybrid players supporting HD DVD? OH WAIT, that's a GREAT thing for HD DVD. Or maybe that XBox add-on is now $179 and you can get standalone HD DVD for below $200 with 5 free movies? OH WAIT, that's another great thing for HD DVD and consumers.
You do REALIZE that CONSUMERS BUY those products right. Even if Target for example,or even Walmart by SOME miracle WENT Blu-Ray ONLY (which I doubt WILL EVER happen, Blu-Ray just can't give them competitive price) there would be plenty others stores selling HD DVD players HALF the price of those being sold at BD exclusive retailers. So you know what would happen then, the same that happens with all other Chinese electronics for example, people would find ways or alternate places to buy those HD DVD players at $100-$150 or whatever they will cost by Christmas and these stores would LOSE.
well Wal-Mart is kind of BluRay exclusive right now there are no HD-DVD's at Wal-Mart, But go over to the PS3 Display and look neer the top of the display... TA-DA!!! BluRay movies.
