The Format war - HD DVD vs. Blu-ray who won the race ?

[Voldy]

From the past 2 years the race to become the king of disc format is take a huge acceleration specially due to the release of consoles frm Microsoft & Sony and attention frm Hollywood and media firms . So guys one Ques. arises frm these " Who conquered the war ? "

Is it Blu-ray or HD DVD !



Yeah its a bit tricky to predict so i making some points which would show their comparision :

1) Picture-Quality :Before November These feature is making a little bit difference btw these formats and in these sec. it was the blu-ray who r a step ahead of HD DVD but not so very far way HD DVD is too little close to blu-ray too but due to recent turn over by HD DVD we cant predict that so its a tie in terms of these point.

2)Disc- media : In terms of capacity in the disc still the blu- ray is ahead of HD DVD despite of the reconization of HD DVD forum to present HD DVD/DVD format by Tosihba which will increases the capacity of HD DVD up to 50gb but because of capacity of Blu-ray is 51 gb. So this round will be won by the mighty "Blu-ray".

3) Market -position:As we see due to the scernario happening around in the past 1 and half year due to release of Sony's PS3 and Microsoft's Xbox360 which were brought a major boost in the market and recents technology provided by the two giants like including Divx support in their consoles and reducing of prices and introducing of 40gb PS3 and Microsoft Xbox360elite would helped those format but in terms of Console selling it was The mighty "S" cuz of their PS3 were the winner in the console war but we r here to discuss abt Console war ok i have to stick to my subj. But in terms of high priced players and blu-ray disc's its was blu-ray who losing the battle and due to releasing of some movies like "Transformers" which bring a major success to HD DVD format and due to the recent flop of Spiderman 3 Blu-ray edition were the main causes for the...

Black Friday? More like Blu Friday. According to Nielsen VideoScan, US sales of Blu-ray discs swelled to a nearly 3:1 lead over HD DVD in the first official week of the holiday shopping season.

According to the just-issued VideoScan numbers, 72.6% of all high-definition discs purchased last week were Blu-ray, versus just 27.4% for HD DVD.

I'm repeating the news again

Guess not many people watch porn or no one is tracking those holiday sales
The HD DVD format is officially endorsed by the porn industry, that's what I read in a thread somewhere here Porn industry standardises on HD-DVD!

^^who pays for p0rn?

Except Columbia Tristar, none of the Hollywood support Blu Ray. Dreamworks SKG will bring out Speilberg movies only in both the formats. Otherwise HD DVD got the support of Hollywood Studios, supports cheaper hardware. Quality wise, I'm not sure which is better.

On a serious note, I think pirates are the true winner. What ever format comes we see 720p, 1080i/p movies. Do pirates care about the source?

^^blu-ray is superior grudgy but the cost factor is higher for blu-ray.

But take my 2 cents guys there is even a higher chances that both may fail completely.

Our simple DVDs are the best lol!!
