“Ironically, the whole [Blu-Ray/HD-DVD] debate may well be pointless. There's little evidence that consumers are eager to upgrade their existing DVD collections, and by the time the latest format war is settled, most of us will simply download movies in our living rooms instead of hoarding them on little plastic discs.”

The above was a pretty accurate call, minus the surrender of the HD-DVD camp — and I love how Netflix, far from becoming irrelevant, became one of the top players in the streaming movie camp!
