In 5 years, when HDTVs become the majority, it is to late for blu ray, game over and as for viewing distances, your splitting hairs, J6 couldn't give a flying FK about that.

I've not got a residual bitterness born from HD DVDs loss, I think it was a better product and I think,had the consumer been allowed to decide the outcome it had a far better long term future and product strategy, but that's only my opinion, other then that I don't give a shi*.

HD DVD faced the same up hill battle as BR for all the above named reasons, but at least HD DVD recognised it wasn't going to kill off DVD and wanted to embrace downloads, and recognised price was more important than power, that gave it a fighting chance. I admit openly to being anti sony, I hate the contempt they treat consumers with, and what it is trying to do with HD media, I think we all loose long term because of sonys short sightedness and arrogance.
