Good job compiling that info Fozziwig. Another great week incrementing the SI number towards our side. Soon the SI number will be a solid 2:1 (66%).

Ha, ha, well put.

What an idiot.

Blu takes the Top 10 two weeks in a row!

It shows that not only is blu winning by a large margin but overall volumes are climbing in a big way.

This is the definition of major momentum.

Volume could be very big. If a generous assumption is made that 'Good Luck Chuck' sold 25,000 units then the top 10 would account for 131,930 units. Then there's everything outside the top 10! The Blu-ray catalogue tends to be strong and I estimate that it will perform at 75% of the top 10. That would take total Blu-ray volume to approx. 230,000 for the week. Considerably higher than last week.

Just guesswork. But I have a feeling there is some major momentum behind Blu-ray at the moment and growth is starting to accelerate.

BTW If that's close then it means that HD DVD volume also went up. But I suppose Toshiba were bound to shift a few players and disposed of a few red movies along the way. Whatever they did it clearly wasn't enough to prevent a second week of total humiliation!

This is yet again cause for celebration. I will claim buying a copy of Good Luck Chuck, so there's my two bits for the week.

Blu all the way!

[The Big Blue]

Is NewLine not going along with Warner as far as releasing HD DVD thru May?

[aphex]

apparently the dud planet earth sold zero or a very few amount of copies or it's a mistake. wow they never get in the top ten anymore.. man if these warner moves were no longer available it'd be 90+ fo sho

[bluskies]

There is also a new article by the editor in the magazine that HD DVD should call it a day.

Oh my GOD, HD DVD IS WINNING, the sales figure climbs up 13% in only one week. If we can keep up this speed, we only need 14 weeks to makes HD DVD gain 100% of market share

Blu-ray news


Another Huge Win for Blu-ray

Posted January 25, 2008 by Josh

Blu-ray Disc The latest Home Media Magazine has been released with the latest Nielson VideoScan data, and for the week ending January 20th, Blu-ray disc sales accounted for 83% of the high definition market. During this time, there were no Buy-One-Get-One-Free sales, showing the complete dominance that Blu-ray holds in the high definition market even without purchasing incentives.

While some analysts concluded that Blu-ray's hold on the high definition market was only a temporary spike due to the Warner announcement, it appears that the trend will continue as more and more consumers discover the benefits of Blu-ray.

What great news!!!!

Go Blu!!

How far did it go into the others?

By that I mean: Last week Blu-Ray took the top 10, but then the next couple were all HD-DVD let's see if Blu-Ray took the top 15. *LOL*

No, that's way too obvious for those idiots to even go there. They'll come up with some grand conspiracy theory and new math and make it look like their format is alive, kicking, and doing surprisingly well in spite of all.

Just voted and at 12:10 CST I found this interesting:

had converted to HD DVD, but will convert to Blu-ray
10.28%

They do not say how many votes that is, but its equal to to the votes to stay HD:

I converted to HD DVD and will stick it out
11.13%

Just something interesting I think.

I expect the SI numbers to gain a point every week from now on (as long as ratios maintain above 80:20) which should put us at 74:26 SI by the end of Q1
