Default Misleading numbers we keep using

I keep hearing on these boards that blu-ray has 70% of the major studios and the market now, and that hd dvd has 30% of the market. This is false and not true. We have failed to account for the intimidation the Warner effect has caused on the major studios in the red camp, they are afraid to release to the degree the blu-ray studios are. This has caused this:

Major studio exclusive releases (does not include re-issues) from 1/22/08:

HD DVD

2/05: Elizabeth: The Golden Age
2/19: American Gangster
2/26: Beowulf
3/04: Into the Wild
3/04: Things we lost in the Fire

3/25: The Jack Ryan Collection
Total: 8


Blu-ray
1/22: The Game Plan
1/22 Saw IV
1/29 Daddy Day Camp
1/29: Damages: The Complete First Season
1/29: The Invasion*
1/29: Monty Python's Life of Brian
2/05: Across the Universe
2/05: Wall Street

3/18: Enchanted
3/18: I Am Legend*
3/18: Steep
3/25: Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story
3/25: Bonnie and Clyde*
3/28: Godzilla

* = Timed Exclusive
Total: 42


This gives us a ratio of approx: 81:19 in favor of blu-ray. I got my info from High Def Digest.

PS: I'm not sure if ST: Season Two is still to be released for HD DVD, but HDD had it up, can anybody confirm or deny this.

UPDATED: I can't find ST: Season Two anywhere for HD DVD. It wasn't in Paramount's release of Q1 titles after Warner and now Amazon only has the DVD up and not the combo HD DVD version at all. I'm assuming due to horrendous sales of ST: Season 1 this got cancelled. I updated the numbers as well.
