HD-DVD vs Blu-ray - just enjoy it!
DSGi (think Dixons/PC World/Currys) had its Christmas preview event last night in London. As expected, home networking is getting a big push with manufacturers such as Belkin getting their updated Draft-N routers (now with an LCD display) ready for launch in stores by September.
However, I was more than a little surprised to read in the press pack that one of the highlights of the festive season will be consumers being able to 'enjoy' the high-definition format war between HD-DVD and Blu-ray.
Quite how anyone is able to enjoy the possibility of splashing out a large amount of money on one format, with the possibility of the other one dominating and, in turn, making their expensive kit redundant is beyond me.
Surely the only way to enjoy the battle is to simply watch from afar, leaving your credit card tucked safely inside your wallet - which is probably something DSGi won't be too happy about.
