People just don't realize what the new format is for... it is so people can watch DVDs in HD... period... people don't care how much room is on the disc... if the movies are in the same HD resolution who cares what kind of disc it is on? And depending on how long HD-DVD is available before blue-ray will have a HUGE effect on who wins... and price too!

If I run a movie studio and see the my competitors just released their entire library of movies in HD and are selling the extra DVDs because people are buying them in HD and I am goning to sit around until blu-ray gets released and is affordable? NOOOOO

Convince me the consumer when I go into the store to buy a blu-ray player for twice the price of the HD-DVD player because it has more space that isn't being used... oh and pay a little bit more for each of the discs too... becuase they "can" hold more on them if we had the stuff to put on them...

HD-DVD SHOULD win the next gen video disc format war because it IS better for the consumer who wants HD movies... Blu-Ray could easily have a different market on the PC side with data storage... where the space really matters!!!
