Default Re: Blu-ray wins over HD-DVD

Means a lot for more than just Nintendo and Microsoft.

Sony is set to show the PS3 console this month, unlike Nintendo who can avoid talking about it. So Sony needs an answer, and soon. Unfortunately, now that the compromise is pretty much been decided, there's a lot of other steps to be taken in the next year before Sony is supposed to launch their console. They need to develop the disc, do extensive testing on it, name it, patent it, bring it up to Hollywood, possibly change it, determine licensing issues, find a way to mass produce these things, and then license the technology out to Sony. Meanwhile, they're fighting a date, because you can only hold off so long before your hardware is final and the production factories have to start mass producing these things in time for launch.

There's no way Xbox 360 will get it in time. PS3 maybe, but I smell delays. And it'll probably be ready by the time Nintendo reveals the revolution.
