And I was talking about what? At the time of Betamax, Sony had no clout
with the studios, but having two big studios NOT releasing for HDDVD
the first 1 or 2 years will make a big difference in who wins
eventually.

Plus, right now, the majority of studios are behind Blu-ray, not HDDVD.


All in all, it spells bad trouble for HDDVD in the long run, as
Forrester Research notes.

And let's not forget people can do a heck lot more with Blu-ray than
HDDVD (which means it's harder to differentiate HDVD from current
DVDs).

I fully expect HDDVD to be gone in 2 years as the price differential
between them collapses.
