Technolution: High-Def DVD vs. Blue-Ray

Hold your horses. Don’t buy that new dvd player or dvd just yet. Wait until the ongoing battle between the two competing formats that are vying to replace the dvd as we know it today is settled. The two contending formats are High-Def DVD and Blu-Ray. And the two contenders are Toshiba Corporation, developers of the High-Def DVD format, and Sony Corporation, developers of the Blu-Ray format.

This has to be a very painful dispute for Sony. A similar war was fought back in the 1980s between two forms of video cassette standards. That war was fought between Matsushita and Sony. Matsushita won with its cheaper and longer-recording VHS standard.

So far, it’s hard to tell who is winning. Both sides have ardent supporters and support is growing on both sides daily. One thing that is already resolved is that Toshiba’s technology is the cheaper of the two. So if prefer to keep your money in the bank, then perhaps you should support Toshiba.

Maybe, just maybe, in the end the two formats will survive, which will force us (consumers) to choose sides or buy both. Like life is not already too complicated.
