So if we keep HDM from gaining mainstream acceptance by continuing a format war that HDVD can't win, then they'll sell more players and media. That's the idea that makes sense? DVD was the most successful consumer electronics launch in history, simply because there was a single unified format. That is what is needed and that is what is emerging right now. It's that simple. You can keep suggesting scenarios in which HDVD doesn't HAVE to die for it to work out, but it's simply not going to happen at this point.
