Re: 90,000 HD DVD players sold in one weekend

"PS3 pushed 55,000 units last week. They're over 5.5 million now..."

Actually, Sony shipped 5.5 million PS3s world-wide and sold about 3.6 million of them. About 1.7 million of these they sold in the U.S.

Bubblebathgirl, I find it funny that some of the links you provide look like they were created at the last minute. I read somewhere that the bluray camp was resorting to these tactics but I didn't think it was actually true

Good ol' bluray propoganda if anything its very entertaining. All these new members that have joined this forum in the last couple of weeks spewing bluray propoganda...just in time to try and minimize the momentum HD DVD is getting with Paramount/Dreamworks going HD DVD exclusive and the HD DVD players selling for $99.

For shits and giggles, here's what you get when you search for Blu-ray sucks:
http://www.google.com/search?gbv=2&hl=en&q=blu-ray+sucks

And now for HD DVD sucks:
http://www.google.com/search?gbv=2&hl=en&q=HD+DVD+sucks&btnG=Search

Can you see how pointless you fanboys are being, or do you require more evidence?

Falcon01,

What do you mean the links were created at the last minute? Are you insane or taking crazy pills perhaps?

This site collects the actual data from Amazon sales:
http://www.blu-raystats.com/faq.shtml

It's funny that all you can do is blabber but when it comes to providing cold hard facts you have none to back you up. This is typical of someone that is losing ... they don't talk about the facts or the numbers ... go to the Amazon site and check for yourself which format is ranked higher.

If you need other links Google them yourself and you'll see that Blu-ray is winning. Here's another recent article from October 26, 2007, and another from October 23, 2007:

Where are your links disputing what I'm saying? There are none, cause they don't exist. HD DVD is losing, Blu-ray is winning.

Just deal with it.

The blu shills refuse to see the true issues with their format. The biggest issue is it is not finished. You should be getting paid for being a beta tester.

Just because 5 million people bought a PS3 does not mean they are watching movies on them. Look at the attach rate that alone proves that. Surveys have found that something like 60% of PS3 owners don't even know there is a BD player in there. Good marketing there. Blu or red you have admit that if the war as you call it did not exist you would be paying much more for the hardware and movies.

I wonder how long it is going to take for Sony to start locking disks to players. They have a patent for that but I'm sure you will dance around that.

Funny how blu shills rip HD about load times yet the new disney movies have a screen saying the disk may take a few minutes to load. So much for that argument.

Then there are profiles of BD. You won't be able to play the extras on the disks that are 1.1 with every player that is on the market right now. The response from blu fans is that's ok who really cares about extras. Then when the story of the Jack Ryan no extras became news the BD people jump on that as I'd be pissed without extras. What a bunch of hypocrites make up your mind.

Sex-Tim you're a riot!

i was bugging the blueray kids because you werent around. and work was slow.. extremely slow. basically just got payed 8 hrs of work to post here, and buy crap on ebay. (IT support) lol I guess nothing broke

SGD, post links to support your claims or no one will believe you ... it's just that simple.

No one has yet to counter the sales figure stats that I have provided which prove Blu-ray is substantially winning.

Picture sound of a calm wind:
