Manufacturer’s Reps Reporting Little Interest in Blu-ray, HD DVD

In one of the more obvious articles I've read in a while, CE Pro has some manufacturer insight into the market for HD & Blu-Ray DVDs, which…surprise, surprise, isn't doing so hot. Until everyone learns to get along, this is going to take a while. If you HAVE to have it, I say you cover yourself & just get a dual-format player…or better yet, just wait & don't support either of these stubborn fools.

 A third manufacturer rep isn't optimistic. He reports that both formats are failing to enjoy much success at the dealers he calls upon. "My dealers say the demand is very limited, with most customers opting for a really good DVD player with upscaling to 1080p. [Our brand] is selling quite a few of them and having trouble keeping them in stock, while HD-DVD and Blu-ray players languish on the shelf."
