Blu-Ray is a format designed: to replace Standard DVD LATER IN THE FUTURE
HD DVD is a format designed: as a stop gap format to DIGITAL DOWNLOADS

Define other markets. Games? Give it time, if this stupid xbox ever shows up with an internal HD DVD drive, it will happen and there's NO reason HD DVD games could not be played over the currently available ad on drive. It's an externally attached drive and is no different that the one inside it. I will say this though, Sony was VERY smart to get the PC support out of the gates as fast as they did.
