The “HD-DVD vs. Blu Ray” war is over, and Blu Ray came out on top. HD-DVD’s are going to bite the dust like Beta video players did so many years ago. THe HD-DVD was more compatible with the DVD for one. It was originally thought that since Blu Ray didn’t have this ability, that it would fail.
Originally, the battle came to a standoff. Both sides got close to 50% of the market, and consumers were mostly too frightened to purchase either one for fear of it’s quick demise.
