They ve spent millions for a reason to create the blu-ray disck format.I dont think they will give up easily..They are planning to succeed.If PS3 sells well it automatically generates Blue-ray support.

And probably that could mean the existence of many and more customers owning a Blue-Ray disk format through PS3(if people dont show interest for Blue-Ray they would show interest for the console) before the HD DVD format manages to get people interested enough to reach the same numbers.

Unless the next XBOX has the HD DVD format and sells well ofocourse.

Also if I remember well an old article mentioned that Sony may not be in such difficult position because they can release many movies on Blue-Ray disk format to support it (for example through Columbia pictures\' rights)

FYI Uni- as of late Sony is openly seeking a compromise to avoid a format war between BR and HD DVD.

Yep. They\'re in talks with their old buddy/rival Toshiba.

If BR has more storage space (or if the HD DVD seems to be the choice so far) why the existence/support of both BR and HD DVD on the same devices? :confused:
I think one of them will be ommited at the end

Indeed and it\'ll most likely be BluRay. It all depends on which company has the most backing.

Well the mtv special is thursday. I wanna see more close up picks of the console. Looks cool though. I thought the color of the console was going to be silver.

Sony & Toshiba are looking to make a format which combines the specs of Blu Ray & HD DVD as a compromise.

This is evidence that Sony\'s willing to
make such an ff-ing detour to keep the
integral specs of PS3.

I think Blu Ray is Sony\'s Betamax of today
and they\'re very aware of their minority in support for it.

The specs of the Xbox360 in the other thread (I saw \'em earlier at another forum) look very real. This format issue is a snag for Sony and maybe a really big one.  

I\'m more curious though for PS3\'s processing specs.

Whatever they\'re planning to do, they need to hurry up and decide already.

It seems they have come to a compromise format :

article

It most likely keeps in line with the original specs for data acces times and compression.
