The useless, stupid (if you allow me) format war as seen a winner in the end.
Can we really call Sony a winner though?
Consider:
1. increasing downloads opportunity, easy and cheap film rental from your couch
2. Data storage cheap and fast thanks to Flash memory
3. DVDs will not go down until the prices of High def TVs will allow it (If you don't have an HDTV why would you buy a player?)
I guess the only reasons why I would consider buying a Blu-ray disc is to burn a PS3 game when the mod chips will allow me to do so... until then I don't really know if Blu-ray will survive.
Meanwhile despite all this, many people have wasted their money buying a product that will be good for nothing... Engadget reports the number of casualties here
Toshiba and Sony both are not coming out of this story looking good...
