It's a mdm mdm mdm mdm world

I have come to the realization that the outcome of this war depends on what Warner does, at this point. Even then, HD-DVD will be around through 2008. I read this forum as well as AVS. I am honestly surprised by what I am reading there. The truth is that a lot of HD-DVDers are now BLU-RAY owners, since the recent price cuts. The same is true of BLU-RAY supporters. They became dual-format with the low-priced Toshiba sales. This is the holidays and we are in a tough economic environment. The average consumer is not as passionate as we are and couldn't care less about loyalties to either format. Personally, I will wait until July 2008. This war has come down to 'economy of scale'. The HDM market is too small to effectively outgrow HD-DVD. Studio support is the only thing that can effectively change that either way. We are all torn between passion and reason.
