the funny thing is even now that HD-DVD is dead, Bluray isn't selling all that much more than when HD-DVD was around.

Personally I just like the name "Blu Ray" sounds much better that (que geeky voice) "HD-DVD"
Sony are not my favorite company, but they did their homework with the PS3 to get Blu Ray in homes before HD-DVD was off the blocks. People arn't going to be buy discs in thier hordes while the prices are so high. I remeber this when DVD first came out and it was 25 pounds a DVD or 15 for VHS. It probably won't take as long mind you as punters know more about the technology now than they did when DVD came out.

I makes sense that the one with the highest potential capacity wins. Higher capacity = higher POTENTIAL image quality and sound.. potentially.
