Oh, and as a general FYI, not only are Blu-ray titles selling 2-1 over HD-DVD, but last week Blu-Ray actually surpassed HD-DVD in total sales:
http://www.thedigitalbits.com/#mytwocentsFinally today, there's word from Nielsen VideoScan and Home Media Retailing that Blu-ray Disc has officially surpassed HD-DVD in Format(s) to Date software sales. According to the data for the week ending 2/18, Blu-ray Disc has now sold 100 units for every 98.71 HD-DVDs sold since the formats launched last year. The linked story at HMR includes blustery spin from all parties concerned, so it's sure to pour gas on the already fiery discussion boards. We'll update our official tracking numbers (above) on Monday.
