His reasons are completely bogus and work as well for HD-DVD as you pointed out. Two resons why blu-ray will not win (I think it will be a tie and we will be stuck with 2 formats).
1. Blu-ray is coming late to the table and is more expensive without delivering greater perceived value.
2. HD-DVD has HD and DVD in its name. Average consumer sees that and understands it is better and the successor to DVD. Blu-Ray means nothing.
