with the news of warner bros. going Bluray exclusive, it's pretty safe to assume that HD-DVD is obsolete...

I hate Digital Downloads. Yes let's have you pay a bunch of money, wait for the download, run out of room to store all the information, pose a whole ton of limitations, blocks, digital rights, make it difficult to bring over to someone else's house to enjoy if they don't have a good computer, and most importantly let's turn you're dvd collection into a pile of dust. if you buy music off itunes you can't put it on a PSP without converting, or burning a cd and ripping it. You might as well pirate

Mainstream picked Blu-ray,Blu-ray has WON. Retailers dropping hd-dvd & not restocking merchandise. Digital downloads is 1%, YOU are in the minority, YOU are a teeny weeny niche group. Hard copies will always rule like tapes, cd, dvd, blu-ray will dominate. Try convincing mainstream to pay higher prices for faster internet speeds + another fee for film downloads & upgrading additional hardware. Good luck cause mainstream ain't going for it. Hard copies FTW. Deal with it.

YUP How could Blu Ray even lose, when in Europe and Asia around the world there killing HD-DVD 4 to 1. and some countries only have Blu-Ray. Fanboys out there Sony is a Major Studio and Music company and electronics. From DVD players to TV, Game system, computers, Speakers, tons more.
