I just assumed Sony or the consortium provided ad dollars to promote Blu-Ray because they not only highlight Blu-Ray and fail to mention HD DVD, they also show Underworld ads all over the place.<br><br>Best Buy in a sense did something similiar when Blu-Ray first appeared.  I noticed they removed their HD DVD display and replaced it with a Blu-Ray display.  For a couple of weeks, I couldn't even locate something that would even show that they were selling HD DVD in their store, but at the same time they were also sold out of the players.<br><br>Hopefully HD DVD will get some equal opportunity somewhere down the line.  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Project Z]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 24th 2006 2:22PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Circuit City 'forgets' to mention HD DVD]]></title><link>http://www.engadgethd.com/2006/07/24/circuit-city-forgets-to-mention-hd-dvd/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgethd.com/2006/07/24/circuit-city-forgets-to-mention-hd-dvd/</guid><description><![CDATA[I wrok at a fortune 500 company and am in chanrge of promoting our products.  It's the office industry so things may be a little different but we do this all the time.  Use promotion funds to secure advertisement in the store locations, beating out the competition.  The only reason Besy Buy and Circuit City send out weekly ads is because they get money for every item displayed in it.  If toshiba does not pay, they get no space.  And I can tell you this, only store search engines are for purchase as well as manufacturers bid on the best search results just like you would pay google for ad words.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Nick]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 24th 2006 3:15PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Circuit City 'forgets' to mention HD DVD]]></title><link>http://www.engadgethd.com/2006/07/24/circuit-city-forgets-to-mention-hd-dvd/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgethd.com/2006/07/24/circuit-city-forgets-to-mention-hd-dvd/</guid><description><![CDATA[Blu-Ray will put a heck of a lot more money in the store's pockets then HD-DVD. Sony touts that it will sell 100 million units easily. Well, all those units need games which will be delivered via Blue-Ray discs. That means even more sales and money for retailers. So it is easy to see way retailers are lining up behind Blu-Ray. There's more money to make on that format. If Xbox 360 launched with a built-in HD-DVD and their games took advantage of the media, it would have a much better chance of winning. Both formats have a great picture although Blu-Ray from what I have seen seems to be lacking a bit (I have viewed the Samsung unit only). I will have revisit the stores after the "Samsung hardware bug" is fixed to see if the picture is improved.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Don]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 24th 2006 3:37PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Circuit City 'forgets' to mention HD DVD]]></title><link>http://www.engadgethd.com/2006/07/24/circuit-city-forgets-to-mention-hd-dvd/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgethd.com/2006/07/24/circuit-city-forgets-to-mention-hd-dvd/</guid><description><![CDATA[Best buy is pushing Blu-Ray also.

Theres that RCA player on our website but its not in stores. The company clearly is backing blu-ray but honestly I think it's better that way anyway. It may not be right for the company to choose for you, but my customers still don't understand the difference between DVD-R and DVD+R. The goal is to not confuse customers, and if your going to choose 1 format as a store, wouldn't you choose the one that makes you more money?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Jim Messina]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 25th 2006 11:17AM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
