Microsoft executive says,” Who needs Blu-ray?”

Boy, there are sure a lot of people that get fired up about Sony vs. Microsoft (Xbox). I read the article and didn't think it was all that bad. The online services that MS has are pretty nice. The Netflix streaming was available a long time before stand alone players, or tvs had it, I think. Same thing for PS3, had one of the first affordable BD players in it. Things are evening up though as the technology ages. Obviously MS is going to downplay Sony's advantage with BD, big woop.
Each company and each system offer a slightly different flavor of the same type of entertainment. Preferring one over the other doesn't mean the opposite one is junk.
