Playstation 3 pushes Blue Ray slightly ahead, but will sink it in time.
Blue Ray will fail eventually 'with' the Playstation 3. Not that it might not be superior in some ways, but for the most part film enthusiasts,moms and dads renting occasionally and the general over 45 crowd, don't play video games. Or to say it better, they don't use there game machines, if they have one, for movies. Now you can all disagree, but as time goes by and the cheap HD DVD players become more available you'll see twice as many Blue Ray players, inflated by the playstation, but more HD DVD movies being sold. Mark my words. Then the major studios will remove there exclusivity and as time goes by Blue Ray will be chalked up as a 'remeber that' tech item. See the other problem is that in America the Playstation 3 never really caught on. Maybe in Europe and Japan its a wild success but not in 'Hollywood' and the USA. I tend to think that the Playstation 3 is a bit of dinosaur, based on bad timing. The Wii opened up a whole new gamer paradigm of using the controller in other ways then just pressing buttons. If you don't think Bill Gates has a team of 100 men working right now on creating a Wii like Xbox ready just in time for when the Playstation 3 is supposed to reach its prime then your out of your mind. The problem is that Sony can't kill its own. Hello HD DVD
