I would say that this holiday season will really be interesting.

This is what continues to puzzle me. HD DVD starts off nice, Blu-ray starts off looking vastly inferior - yet all of Blu-ray's exclusive studio and hardware support remains intact. This is something that HD DVD fanboys continuously say will change in time. My question is when? Why haven't these companies decided to jump ship or at least give dual format support? The only reason I can come up with is that all of the companies still believe Blu-ray will emerge victorious. And at this early stage, who's to say they're wrong? Surely the confidence of the BDA has not been waivered by the early success of it's competitor.
