I told you so.

Makes a change for Sony to win a format war. ;-)


**It was a forgone conclusion. Sony did a bunch of things right. The main
one was to ship thousands of players BEFORE significant numbers of software
titles (in either format) became available. HD-DVD lost the war before it
really started. Kudos to Toshiba for pulling the plug early though.
Consumers can buy hardware and software with some confidence.

I wonder... I am still cautious of the small surface spot size and shallow
depth for the information layer of Blu Ray. I am personally happy to wait
and allow the long term reliabilty to be tested by others. :-)

Slainte,
