The new format war


Finally the last nail was put in the coffin for HD-DVD. I have backed Blu-Ray since the launch as it never was any doubt which was the better format.

Yesterday Universal was quick to say they will switch to Blu-Ray, and then there's just really Paramount/Dreamworks who need to come forward and say they will start producing movies in BD and I will be a very happy man!

Now we can start focusing on the other format-war! Blu-ray vs DVD! Or SD vs HD as we will probably call it from now on. Standard Definition vs High Definition.

The sales-volume of both players and movies must increase so that the prices go down towards DVD-prices. Therefore you need to go out and buy a Blu-ray-player and a few movies now if you haven't done so already!
Tell your spouse I said it. You have my permission! :)
