Hmm - i think there is a 3rd possible outcome, where both formats survive, HD-DVD being the walmart crowd and blu-ray being the higher-end crowd, the same bunch that really have HDTV's because they can afford them.
I recall 1997 when i stood in line to pay 500 bucks for a DVD player... i will not do that again, i will wait for the PS3 and a BD/RW for my computer. If it were not for the PS3, then Sony for sure knows, this would be a very possible Betamax redux.
