HD DVD Still Kicking

Despite the move by Warner Bros. into the Blu-ray high-definition video camp, Samsung said Wednesday that it still plans to go ahead with the launch of a second generation dual-format Blu-ray/HD DVD player this year. In an interview with the Gizmodo website, DongSoo Jun, head of Samsung's digital AV unit, said that while he agrees with those who say that all the major Hollywood studios will eventually adopt Blu-ray exclusively, there will nevertheless remain a market for dual-format players because of the strong foothold Microsoft and Toshiba will continue to hold in the PC market for high-definition recorders. (Microsoft's Xbox 360 also plays HD DVD disks.) Jun said he expects HD DVD to remain the choice for personal hi-def videos and Blu-ray, for professional videos.

Granted the news agency that provides this garbage to Imdb has shown its bias in the past, but if Mr DongSoo Jun has indeed said that, that is so blatantly false that it makes obvious their necessity to sell the new gen Combo players already in the kinks...

If confirmed, someone needs to remind Samsung that

1) Blu Ray has been the format of choice in 2007 by consumers
2) Which format is Hitachi producing its personal HD camcorders? Ah, yes. Blu Ray.
3) How will HD DVD be the "format of choice" for personal Hi Def, when no studio will make movies for it pretty soon?
4) I don't know of too many personal solutions to Burn HD, except Blu Ray.
Might be wrong on that, but I'm pretty sure there's more offer on PC players/burners on Blu Ray than HD DVD.
5) HD DVD is dead Jun. It's ok, let it go.
You'll still sell your $799 combo players to some disgruntled HD DVD owners who will want to play the new releases in BD.
