I think just about all of us know that sony is using the PS3 to boots the Blu-ray base install base. However it appears that the PS3's inclusion is hurting Sony's Blu-ray format.
According to a survey by Cymfony, a analyst group that focuses on market influence, HD-DVD has 46% more positive discussions on various websites than Blu-ray. Half as many people are also impressed with Blu-ray visuals than are with HD-DVD visuals. The key reasons for low Blu-ray acceptance is the forced inclusion in the PS3 and Sony's format reputation. Whatever the reason is, it appears Microsoft was dead on in making the HD-DVD an add on, if you want it great if not well that's 200 more in your pocket. How do you think this will affect PS3 sales?
