HD DVD fights back in the US

Matthew Dobson

My Decision Making Process

To complement my shiny new HDTV I decided to get a next generation player. In doing so I had the following thought process:

1. Decided to go Blu-Ray, just because it was a format that I had heard more than HD-DVD.

2. Look for a suitable player based on reviews and price.

3. Decide that the PS3 had the best reviews for playing movies (and the cheapest), and you get a next-gen games console in the bargain.

4. Purchased as a Blu-Ray player and play the occasional game.

I'm sure I am not the only one to do this. The cheapest and (arguably) the best Blu-Ray player. No-brainer to me!

I'm sure the number of people purchasing PS3 players would be significant enough to significantly affect these figures. I understand also that these numbers are not tangible enough to include.

I just want HD-DVD to roll over and die, so Transformers and Shrek 3 will be available on Blu-Ray ;)
