My what a difference a few months make. Six months ago, no one would have bet that Blu-Ray would win the HD content war. Think about Sony's history. Betamax, memory stick, etc. The truth is, HD content has not sold well at all compared to regular DVD because everyone has been sitting on the sidelines to see how the HD content war played out. For most of 2997, it seemed like HD DVD would win. Then came CES 2008. Media production companies were switching to Blu-Ray in droves. In fact, there are only two studios left producing HD DVD disks. The nail in the HD DVD coffin was Microsoft announcing that they were switching to Blu-Ray.
It looks like Sony won! Now I can go out and buy a Blu-Ray player.
