Of the $13.8 billion worth of returned products in 2007, only 5 percent were because gadgets were actually broken, according to a 2008 study.

HD DVD 265 vs Blu-ray 272.
So you think 7 movies are going to make the difference? Oh, an that doesn't include p0rn - with that it's actually:
HD DVD 270 vs Blu-ray 272 (or 273 can't actually find the bd copy for sale).
Exactly.
Not only are you correct to say this, but this doesn't even include the wealth of available import HD DVD's that include some current Blu-ray exclusives (The Prestige, T2, The Brother's Grimm, Ghost Rider, The Bridge to Terabithia, and many others).
For me its all about the region free titles, and once you weigh in on Studio Canals international titles, HD DVD clearly has more than Blu-ray(at least for the time being).
I'm just sick of hearing that Blu-ray has more titles, and that you're missing out if you opt for HD DVD when really the opposite is true. Ultimately, years down the line, if all studios maintain their current status Blu-ray will have more, but that's assuming that nothing changes between now and then, and frankly that seems highly unlikely. With all of the money that Paramount and Warner are making through their support of both formats, I can't see why a handful of Blu-ray exclusives will ultimately find their way to format neutrality (with the exception of releases from Sony and Disney). I doubt we'll ever see Universal, Disney, or Sony go neutral as that will surely be the end of the format war, which I don't see ending any time soon, but smaller studios should follow the money, and right now the money is in format neutrality.
