"By the end of the first quarter, the format war is over," he [Fox exec. Mike Dunn] said, noting Sony's recently released PlayStation 3 game console with a Blu-ray drive had boosted sales.

"I'm selling 70,000 discs a week. Sales are doubling every week. ... Average PS3 owners buy 6 discs," he said.

Lionsgate Entertainment (LGF) studio director Steve Beeks also ruled out producing dual mode disks.

"If we end up with one format and diminish the confusion that consumers will experience, we get to the end game more quickly," he said.

Do the math. 1M PS3s X 6 discs per unit = 6M Blu-ray discs sold!
