Will HD DVD be the new Betamax ?

Betamax failed because SONY were doing it alone, and the other big companies in Japan were united around VHS.

Now Toshiba is doing HD DVD alone, and Panasonic, Sharp, Sony, Pioneer,
JVC and Mitsubishi are united around Blu ray.

I think it is important, that people know the risk they take now, if they buy a new Toshiba HD DVD player at USD 223 at amazon.

A Blu ray player is a safer investment.
