I swear to god you people. Post a Sony issued statement that their sales have increased in Africa. I mean wtf, and yet you fail to report that Amazon picked HD DVD players as top picks for this holiday season.
This is so funny. Just keep at it, these idiotic press releases won't change the facts that HD DVD still owns them at most places worldwide. It's because HD DVD is a REAL, finished format that is supported by OFFICIAL DVD Forum and completely open for the whole world to use and not some half baked hack standard created with only one need. To rip off consumers while they figure out how all things should work.
@Nfinity:
Anytime a BD or a Sony article comes up... how do I know that you're always going to be quick on the draw. Here's the perspective of a blu-ray supporter... When an article is written about Toshiba and/or praising HD-DVD, great for them, I have my preference and mind already made up.
If anyone from Engadget murmurs the word Soo... or Blu.. you guys come out of the wood works... Settle, down.. If you don't like it, don't read it. There's a lot on here that I don't agree about, but I just choose not to write about it.
In my mind, HD-DVD is losing the battle on paper compared to Sony, but it's not dead yet. All I have to say to you and anyone like you... quityerbitchin.
Come on. Their kick butt and taking names. I mean, 15,000 units to date is a lot. In a year, that's about 41 movies a day. They're gonna be rolling in the dough now. The BR execs might be able to use their bonus to take the fam to McDonalds.
