What parts of HDDVD and Blu are common? I assume that some of it is, usable chips, etc., but I too doubt that they are worth $190 to BD manufacturers, with entire HDDVD players selling for under that. The decode circuitry in basic HD standalones isn't much more than $100, right? ...considering price differences between players and 5.25" drives.
