Beta had better picture at the start, so did HD-DVD
Beta had poor CE support, so does HD-DVD.
Beta had poor Studio support, so does HD-DVD.

So they are charging 200.00 extra for a drive that will be the next betamax, and to top it all of they are not even using if for game storage. What is going to happen when they have to make 4-5 disc games to keep up with games demands for more detail, levels, AI and the like?
don't forget betta max could only hold one and a half hous of video(i think that is what killed them)
