If history is ever a guide... it should be here. Pick the standard that *isn't* Sony. They have a long and proud history of really blowing it on industry standards. I'd bet this will be no different.

Consumers will pick the standard based on the availability of content.

If the movie industry distributes their content on Blu-Ray discs, it will win.
