Comparisons to DVD-A Vs. SACD may not be valid. They didn't die because of the "war", they died becausae nobody wanted either of them. I suspect one or both formats will be niche products only. I'm really not convinced people want another format (so maybe the comparison is valid). The issue isn't the "war", since most people aren't paying attention, its the fact that there is another format(s) people have to buy into. DAT didn't die because of a format war, neither did the minidisc. Laserdisc wasn't adopted by the masses, and it wasn't because of any war, it was because it was expensive, big and bulky, and a PITA to use. As far as downl;oads goes, that is a strong likelyhood, but they'll be 720p, They have already started doing that.
