How much longer will it go on?

Until the retailers decide to stop selling HD-dvd standalone players.

The hd-dvd camp needs to give up and go home. I hate the idea of bluray because Sony has effed the consumer to many times with proprietary formats but you would have to be blind to not see that it is destroying hd-dvd.

I think Toshiba wont give up with a fight but as long as Sony and Warner get the message across which side they are on, Blu-ray will win easily.

Or dual format players will reach a price point that will make the format war meaningless.
