I have already seen commercials for new dvds that are coming out. The commercials say "Now available on DVD and Blue ray", there is a reason why they don't say or show an HD dvd...because the aren't making them. Which is why blue ray has already won. HD Dvd is a goner..sorry bro. Also, haven't you read like the bazillion articles about different companies that are making/distributing blue ray exclusively. Best buy and Circuit city and wal-mart have slashed prices of HD players to get ride of the stock. simple economics.

Plus....blue ray sounds cooler anyway...
Exactly. The only possible thing that could save HD-DVD would be a consumer backlash to not purchase Blu-Ray and stick with standard DVD. But that's not going to happen.

I wonder how long it will be until the blu-ray version of Xbox is released.
