Just when it looked like things were going Sony's way for once, it looks like we could end up with another BetaMax/UMD situation. Sony has never had a successful proprietary format.They could keep this war going a long, long time though, just by releasing their own movies on Blu-Ray with the combination of many people having Blu-Ray players by default (PS3's).I really just wish this war would end.
I think the execs know the hackability of hd-dvd vs bluray. bluray is pretty tough as they can change the security system(BD+). histortically adoptions has came from freedom of use...get the drift?

ALL blu's are cheaper than hd-dvds, it doesnt matter if its a dual format disk, hd-dvd is typically 3-7 dollars more expensive
