As the last person to ever know anything outside of programming, and as a movie buff that owns but 3 DVDs (all standard def), I never found out who won the Sony Blu-ray versus Toshiba HD DVD battle. So, after a few Google searches that ranked articles from 2005 first, I just wiki’ed Blu-ray and, yes, Blu-ray prevailed.
Check out my source: Wikipedia: Blu-ray DVD
Why write about this? Well, I think it’s a bit funny that I’m so out of it and that Google thinks that if you’re searching “Blu-ray v HD DVD”, you’re doing a historical search :O) I guess, in some strange way, I also enjoy advertising my ignorance.
