Out of curiosity, how does the success of Blu-Ray or HD-DVD have anything to
do with the XBOX 360?

The system has a DVD drive, the games are on DVD. If someone WANTS, they can
buy the HD-DVD drive but there is no requirement to do so. As such, how is
the success of the 360 tied to that of HD-DVD? Also, how will the success of
HD-DVD affect the 360?

Only Sony had enough stupidity to tie the success of Blu-Ray to the PS3.
Only Sony needs to look and see how many Blu-Ray titles were sold. Everyone
else can stay put and ignore the movie wars.
