However, and this is a tiny story really, but Play.com - a hugely popular online DVD retailer in the UK - report that pre-orders for HD-DVD's outweigh those of blu-ray by 3 to 1.
The article reckons it is likely down to the massive price difference on the hardware, with Toshiba's player going for £450 and the Samsung blu-ray player at £950 HD-DVD could be in for a good Christmas with another 5 months before the PS3 arrives on these shores. Overall I doubt it makes a scrap of difference, HD-DVD players will likely sell in hundreds of units while the PS3 will be in hundreds of thousands come March next year. But it is very clear that price is a big factor. Why are blu-ray players so much more than HD-DVD players? Is it simply the technology involved? |
