Thats hilarious because theres no way blu-ray players were outselling HD DVD players prior to that announcemt like the first graph portrays, and that 2nd graph is most likely counting ps3's to make it look that good.. considering that HD DVD players are still by far outselling blu-ray players on amazon.

wrong and wrong again.

yes because amazon is the only retailer that sells high def players. Idiot.

It's hilarious because it's absolutely, completely true.
And there are *still* plenty of people like that just refuse to believe it.

Kris, instead of using opinion for statements of fact, try backing them up with reliable data...it will make your life seem a little less dopey....

Wow. Someone is in total denial.
"But, but cheaper players *have* to sell better...right?"
No. No they don't. Because all things are not equal (content), so competing on price means didly-squat.

That is because of the free blu-ray players - the same tactic as BOGO blu-ray discs.
