I meant no offense, but right now, the vast majority of (the few) sales is in the US. Its nothing personal, but we had a head start, so there's more releases available here than other places. That's not so much of an issue with HD DVD, since it doesn't have region coding, but it is more of one with BD.
While the "war" may have some effect on sales, the biggest factor, IMO, is the fact that most people are very happy with DVD. Most just don't think the difference is worth the extra money. Now, if the players and discs get down to DVD prices, then we've got a shot. I still think both will end up being niche products-hey, laserdisc was a niche product, and it lasted a couple of decades. :-)
