The HD DVD promotions group corrects Home Media Magazine
In last week's Home Media Magazine, there was an article stating that HD DVD would release a total of 800 titles in 2007. As much as HD DVD lovers everywhere would love to have that kind of selection, 240 titles in one month (December according to the article) is just too much for any format -- even the most devout HD DVD fanboy would have a hard time buying this many discs in one month. When questioned, the HD DVD promotions group cleared the confusion up. Basically the number HMM was using was based on yearly totals for each month, not the total releases for that month. The other crazy number from the article was the total number of Blu-ray tiles; which was 43. For those still scratching your head, there have already been more than 43 this year.

"Basically the number HMM was using was based on yearly totals for each month, not the total releases for that month."
And they were global accumulated numbers from 2006.
