On behalf of the media companies, Microsoft, and other hardware manufactures we now have a defenitive answer on the winner. Its not Blu-Ray, its not HD-DVD, it is Piracy!
"We understand now that piracy is a business model," Sweeney told them unequivocally. "It exists to serve a need in the market for consumers who want TV content on demand. Pirates compete the same way we do - through quality, price and availability. We we don’t like the model but we realise it’s competitive enough to make it a major competitor going forward."
If you take 10 minutes to look around, you will see that every HD movie is now available on P2P networks.Both Blu-Ray and HD-DVD bombed in the market place! Neither one of the two were impressive enough to shell out the kinda cash they were asking for.
