I’m a sucker for an easy bet.
Back…oh, 6 or so months ago, I wondered who’d win the high definition DVD battle;
Toshiba HD DVD or Sony Blu-ray.
What prompted me was an article I read where Netflix had wholly endorsed HD DVD…or something to that effect…I don’t remember the details. Regardless, I thought HD DVD was a sure thing for that reason, plus Microsoft backed it.
Be glad I’m not a day-trader working your money;
Toshiba officially threw in the towel and the now ubiqutious Blu-Ray will rule the day. Naturally, former supporters moved quickly to Blu-ray, notably Wal-Mart and Netflix. Target and Blockbuster had already made the decision earlier. Meanwhile, Microsoft eschews the obvious.
