than the technical superiority of the format. I'm afraid Toshiba's strategy of cheap standalone players and the (badly needed from HD DVD'S POV) Paramount defection has leveled the playing field so-to-speak.
I'm a firm believer that HD DVD is crippling Universal/Warner/Paramount releases because of bandwidth/storage limitations (including Warner Blu-ray's because they are saving money using HD DVD-crippled encodes) but that argument doesn't mean anything to J6P with typically modest HT systems. >95% of the people out there couldn't care less about lossless/uncompressed audio and high bitrate video encodes. In fact, i suspect they (and the studios) care more about special features which, unfortunately, is an area Blu-ray is still playing catchup on.
