Blockbuster announced they will go exclusively Blu-ray. How much will this effect the format wars? Will this send HD DVD the way of the Beta? Could this be the Sony KO punch, or does BB really have that much clout? Sound the alarm or hit the snooze button?
Just for clarification; of the HiDef video offerings currently available, Blockbuster will only carry Blue-Ray in their B&M stores, but will carry both Blue-Ray and HD DVD on line.
Last year Walmart significantly altered the whole retail video industry with discounted Plasmas. Don't discount, the power of the bottom line and the clout to deliver it. Now that HD DVD players can be bought for $300, don't be surprised if Walmart or another discount giant has a profound effect on the HiDef video market.
