It is like DIVX when that system was for sale at circuit city and people bought into it thinking it would become the new way of DVDs. It wasn't.
Some stores are pushing people to move on to Blu-ray while others are pushing you toward HD DVD in the hopes they the machines they committed to will be the ones that keep selling.
There is more to this than software. The machines are part of the equation. For all those people who go one way and not the other expect them to want more titles, and expect the machine wrs to get even more heated.
By the way, Circuit City is behind the push to Blu-ray so that is not necessarily a good sign....

This is the VHS and Betamax war all over again. I will stick with DVD until there is an industry standard set. How many people do you know with Betamax players or had to throw them away when VHS won?

Format war is nowhere near the end. HD DVD is still going strong and there is a possibility that both of them will co-exist.
