Blu-ray dominating sales charts

@ 2008/01/22
Coming as no surprise to anyone, Warner’s sudden endorsement of Blu-ray on 4th January has certainly been felt at retailers nationwide. NPD numbers are in for the first two weeks on January for standalone set-top players and Blu-ray Disc has squashed the competition with a 92.5/7.5 split the week ending 12th January. To show how immediate this change occurred, the previous week (ending 5th January) was 51/49 in Blu’s favor. This does not include the Playstation 3 or the Xbox360 add-on.

No real surprise IMO. Most analysts agree right now that the battle will drag out longer than the average consumer realizes, but it's definitely not looking good for HD DVD these days.

I just want one format to win, regardless of what kind of pitfalls it has.
