Don't get me wrong, I do believe that downloadable movies are the way to the future, although there will be a small market that will choose having a solid item like a dvd or blu ray in their hands instead of some data on a disc. What worries me is that the HD dvd group just forced the blu ray group (which were going to win from the start anyway) to invest too much money in a product that was meant to be a temporary solution to demand in better hd images anyway.
What we ended up with was a product meant for early adapters to be thrown onto a mass market that wasn't ready for it as many of the comments here underline. Beside that all eleven major companies that form the blu ray group had to put too much funds into this and this will delay the arrival of any future products like holographic media.
