Wow, excellent article. I never considered Microsoft's involvement with
the format war. I always thought their PC side was neutral, while their
console side chose HD-DVD simply because it's not Sony's.

Although, I'm surprised he didn't point out the similarities between
DVD-R/+R, which resulted in slow adoption until the multiformat devices
became affordable.
