Well, it is official. The DVD manufacturers have given up trying to find a compromise, and will be coming out with the next generation of DVD players in two incompatible formats. Considering that about half of movie studios have adopted Blue-Ray from Sony and about half have adopted HD-DVD frOM Toshiba, it is likely that it will be consumers caught in the middle in a VHS vs Beta-style conflict.
Of course, the new Sony Playstation 3 will support only Blu-Ray, which will give it a major leg up. (But I hear tell that XBOX 2 will support HD-DVD.) Then again, I am not entirely sure that the public is ready to abandon the existing DVD format for a new one, so soon after replacing their VHS collections completely. Personally, I dread a world where my movie collection becomes obsolete every 10 years. Then again, since I own over 300 movies, this hits me harder than the average person who probably owns under 100.
