Cheap HD-DVD players by Christmas ???

It is being reported that Wal-mart (aka Asda) are planning to sell a massive number of cheap HD-DVD players in the run up to Chrishmas (possibly below $200).

If true it could be decsisive in the HD format wars.

Wal-mart currently sells DVDs at a loss to attract customers and accounts for 40-45% of US DVD sales.

I also read today that the Matrix Trilogy will only be released on HD DVD format. Things seem to be hotting up and I hope Sony are in this for the long term.

Always makes me lol when sony fanboys declare the war over and state matter-of-factly that BD has won...when both formats are doing utterly shit.

HD Dvd is only 720 and Blu-Ray is 1080.......Blu-Ray is better in that fact...

They could have developed Holographic Versatile Disc (HVD)
It can hold up to 3.9 terabytes.
But yes i forgot big companies like SONY want to make money by selling us
first FLOPPY after CD next DVD and now BD.
Whats next??? Maybe PH-DVD and TeraDisc. And after these HVD.
Technology exists everything is about MARKETING.
Check these links to WIKIPEDIA.

HVD will most likely be the next format that we see in 10-15 years time. Yeah I know it sucks that they keep bringing out new formats but meh.

Before 15 years 4GIGABYTES of HDD were enough.
Now over 700GIGABYTES of HDD are enough.
