Quote from: TheMallratThey are still doing HD-DVDs at the other stores and online so its really no big deal. Plus, its only in the US, over here they are still doing both apparently. Also, the US HD-DVD fans can always just rent from somewhere else like Netflix if they like.

Also, how is Blu-ray a better format? Other than having more space, there is really no difference and the fact that the spec changes in November is a little stupid of the BDA.

Because more space = Better

Why are we getting rid of DVD for HD-DVD? Because of Space.
Whats going to happen in 5-10years? Well have HD-DVD2, that has double the capacity.

More space may = better for data storage but for movies its been proven that HD-DVD is as good as, and in many cases better, than Blu-ray and at the moment the war is for which will be the next movie format.

Me smells sony fanboy

Ive read & Im old enough to have been around the VHS/Betamax.

Im no Sony Fanboy. Never owned a PS. Owned a PS2 but ditched it when the XBOX came out. Bought a PSP & have used it for less than 10hours.

What I am saying isnt based on opinion, its based on the experience of being there when it happened last time around. Im not talk 80/90s. Im talking late 70s. The format war was affectively over by 1980.

Its just the arguement HD-DVD will win is because of Porn & thats why VHS won. Pornos had nothing to do with it.
