I'm Calling For A Grass Roots Effort To Support Blu-Ray

HD-DVD is lingering like a bad smell and it's hurting the next generation of home video. Blu-Ray's dominance is not only inevitable, it's preferable, but the struggle is being dragged out longer and longer and more and more people are investing in HD-DVD technology that is not only currently inferior, it's (relatively) shortly going to be obsolete.

I think we need to engineer a grass roots effort to spread the word about Blu-Ray and drive a nail or two into HD-DVD's coffin. Admittedly, it's going to take a lot more nails than we could provide, but I'm sure every little bit will help.

And please, think twice before investing in any HD-DVD discs. You will regret it.

I wish I could guarantee you that you won't regret shelling out for Blu-Ray, but I can't. The whole generation might be skipped over if this stupid 'war' can't be wrapped up soon.

I've posted an article below that lays the blame for this meaningless war at Microsoft's feet - click upon it to expand it.

For the record, I've got no time for either Microsoft or Sony and their willingness to sell consumers down the river for a quick buck, but it doesn't take too much research to see which of the disc formats trumps the other.
