Is it just me or are they getting more desperate, theres no way these numbers are correct, well at least by Nielson numbers. What are they going to say next, there is no such thing as blu ray?

Did you read the article? It talks about percentages. HD DVD had a bad 1Q since there were very few releases. So it makes since they would have the increase stated. BD also sold alot of titles in 1Q so it would be believeable that it had a 5% drop in 2Q sales if the 1Q sales were as good as the BD group says. We need the actuals figures to be sure but the statistics seem reasonable.

It's all percentages. You can spin them anyway you want if you have the data to back them and i'll bet the data they used does indeed show the percentages listed.
