Blu-ray vs. HD DVD sales - Blu-ray Forum

Rike255 · 08-01-2007, 03:44 PM

I'm just wondering if anyone knows of any reputable sites that post sales numbers on these two formats. If they exist, that is.

Amazon gets stuff faster, it automatically assigns a week when stuff runs out

Not that I am aware of. All we really have to go off of is ratios, how one title compares to another, but no real numbers.

All we have is numbers on Departed in terms of versus

You'll never see them published unless they sell an ungodly amount

Wow thanks for the help that second site is really good. I wish it showed numbers though instead of ranking on Amazon I'd like to get an idea of how well these are actually selling.

Amazon rankings are completely unreliable. They change from hour to hour, and no matter what, #1 could sell 1000 copies, #3 could sell 997 or 6.

It's arbitrary. Nielsen is the accurate picture, and we have the ratios which is all that matters in the end, because as penetration increases so will copy depth

Ya that's what I mean. I wish they posted actual sales numbers.

Now that I look at it Nielsen is really good too. Where does Nielsen get their information?
