blu-ray_knockoutThe result is in! The leading Hi-Def media in sale, Blu-ray is not only leading HD-DVD as expected but captured a whopping 85 percent share in Hi-Def market. Home Media Magazine has posted the most recent hi-def disc sales and also revealed none of the HD-DVD releases make it to the Top 10 list. The Warner decision to endorse Blu-Ray exclusively certainly plays a big factor in the chart. HD-DVD was holding steady with a healthy 39% share during the holidays season. It’s a completely different situation now with the World’s largest media company turn against them.

Best selling HD DVD title, The Kingdom is barely sold about 10% of the total sale as of Blu-Ray title, 3:10 To Yuma , which also claimed the top spot. Perhaps Universal and Paramount should do the public a big favor, ends the hideous and costly Format War by going Blue. Toshiba can’t stop the bleeding, their recent campaign sounded weak and inadequate to change the eventuality.

    Please do a grammar check, Daniel. Your articles are always of interest to me, but your quality of English needs a proofreader.
