How do the Studios line up now ? - Blu-ray Forum

JimPullan · 09-07-2007, 09:22 PM

I just read a thread in the Players section showing the breakdown of Blu-Ray Players vs. HD-DVD (as of today from CEDIA announcements). So, with 15 Blu-Ray hardware manufacturers and 5 HD-DVD units, where do we stand with the Studios? Anyone have an accurate breakdown? [Jim]

Not counting subsidiaries, and including neutral studios, it's about 16 to 9 in favor of Blu-Ray.
