I don't know if anyone is really interested in this but there is actually light at the end of the 'HD-player format war tunnel' as NEC just announced the release of a chip that does both HD-DVD and Blue-Ray decoding. They anticipate a monthly output of 300,000 chips. This should open the market for universal HD-players. This might still be unsatisfactory for DVD-A and SACD enthusiatst but who owns these anyway? I don't mean to tick anyone off, it's just that I can't get MY music in this format. Any comments?
