ZDNet's Storage Bits blogger Robin Harris says he never predicted back when HD-DVD and Blu-ray were duking it out for supremacy in high-definition video playback that both would lose. Blu-ray has only 4 percent of the market, and it's not looking good.
But that's what he's saying now.
Among other things, Harris cites licensing fees that are huge both in number and size, high production costs for discs and my favorite — cheap up-converting DVD player-recorders that make standard-definition video look extremely good on high-definition television sets.

About this blog
New ways to sign in to comment: I just added the ability for prospective commenters on this blog to sign in using their AOL, Yahoo! and Wordpress.com accounts (for the past 200 posts anyway ... more than that will take an extensive, middle-of-the-night rebuild). That's in addition to the other sign-in choices, which include starting a Movable Type account on this blog, Typekey, OpenID, Live Journal and Vox. If you have trouble getting your Movable Type account verified, or any of the other sign-in options are not working properly, please e-mail me. With these added ways of signing in, there's more reason than ever for you to make a comment (or several!).
