I like my HD-DVD
I've got an HD-DVD player along with several titles. Of course it looks as
good--identical--to BluRay. But the technology was fundamentally less
expensive. The players cost less. The disks cost less to make (and could
be made compatible with regular DVD, simplifying inventory). It was
ready for market.

Sony loved making royalties from licensing CD technology. They missed
the boat on DVD and they were bound and determined to win the HD
war. It was never about the superiority of their technology (Sony hasn't
made superior technology in a decade). It was simply about licensing
revenue. A bitter victory, eh?
