Maybe because it really isn't a dying format?]]>Sep 20th 2007 3:48PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2007/09/20/hd-dvd-to-start-promoting-hdi-with-logo/http://hd.engadget.com/2007/09/20/hd-dvd-to-start-promoting-hdi-with-logo/

*laugh* Someone obviously stole his account. We should send an email to Weblogs and inform them. ;)

Personally, I prefer HD-DVD. Still, it's beginning to look as though both formats may survive--and that's fine with me.]]>Sep 20th 2007 7:58PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2007/09/20/hd-dvd-to-start-promoting-hdi-with-logo/http://hd.engadget.com/2007/09/20/hd-dvd-to-start-promoting-hdi-with-logo/
First of all, it's absolutely self-centered and hypocritical, not to mention completely false, what you just said about all these interactive and additional features. They are not IMPORTANT to YOU but are sure more important to majority of people as they WOULD NOT BE INCLUDED on discs in the first place.

We are suppose to go next generation, get connected with online encyclopedia, expand out knowledge about the specific topic or movie you just saw and expand our library and all this without the need for stuffing everything on one disc. You approach is actually very typical of a Blu-Ray person in denial, which is pretty much everyone out there. Sure there are people like I am who actually both and let me give you a piece of information, 90% of people I know who are format neutral prefer HD DVD both audio/video/interactivity wise. So go figure.

Why Blu-Ray is winning is because they are literally paying every single person, retailer and media outlet to FORCE consumers to buy Blu-ray. If it was just on the merits of the format there wouldn't be this war to begin with.

Playstation 3 as shown everywhere IS the ONLY reason why Blu-Ray exists. The charts that show Blu-Ray player presence on the market is like 99% PS3s and 1% standalones. Absolutely ridiculous and as an individual bought the Playstation 3 in hopes to play cool games like be did on Playstation 2 they were forced to pick sides. So yeah, that advantage is not so clear anymore, especially when we know that from sales advantage that was screamed about from Sony (4:1 in sales) from the beginning of the year (read Casino Royale)to 3:1 and 2:1 over the course of time. Let me enlighten you that last MONTH even when HD DVD had one week of no releases, Blu-Ray has not managed to go over 1.5:1 in sales over HD DVD.

What you think will happen when holiday season comes. If there is no crippled PS3 for $399 (which is still just a rumor), you can say BAH BAH to Blu-Ray by year's end.]]>Sep 20th 2007 8:25PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2007/09/20/hd-dvd-to-start-promoting-hdi-with-logo/http://hd.engadget.com/2007/09/20/hd-dvd-to-start-promoting-hdi-with-logo/Sep 20th 2007 8:22PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2007/09/20/hd-dvd-to-start-promoting-hdi-with-logo/http://hd.engadget.com/2007/09/20/hd-dvd-to-start-promoting-hdi-with-logo/Sep 20th 2007 7:59PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2007/09/20/hd-dvd-to-start-promoting-hdi-with-logo/http://hd.engadget.com/2007/09/20/hd-dvd-to-start-promoting-hdi-with-logo/Sep 20th 2007 9:28PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2007/09/20/hd-dvd-to-start-promoting-hdi-with-logo/http://hd.engadget.com/2007/09/20/hd-dvd-to-start-promoting-hdi-with-logo/
Dude get a life....not one person in this thread has tried to justify anything to do with Blu-ray. Go out and breath some fresh air man....you really need it.]]>Sep 20th 2007 9:37PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2007/09/20/hd-dvd-to-start-promoting-hdi-with-logo/http://hd.engadget.com/2007/09/20/hd-dvd-to-start-promoting-hdi-with-logo/

Oh, and note the disk sales break is now a lot more even now that the BD Paramounts are sold out.]]>Sep 21st 2007 2:03AMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2007/09/20/hd-dvd-to-start-promoting-hdi-with-logo/http://hd.engadget.com/2007/09/20/hd-dvd-to-start-promoting-hdi-with-logo/
But in fact, it's not, just because, as a lot of people don't know, it is NOT mandatory for a player to be BD-J compliant (I wonder why...) to have the right to but the Blu-Ray logo on a player.]]>Sep 21st 2007 1:34PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2007/09/20/hd-dvd-to-start-promoting-hdi-with-logo/http://hd.engadget.com/2007/09/20/hd-dvd-to-start-promoting-hdi-with-logo/Sep 26th 2007 11:45PM
