Blu-ray beaten by HD DVD only for one week

HD DVD format officially died last month, but here is an interesting story on how it beat the pants off rival Blu-ray. Apparently Nielsen VideoScan results for the week of Feb. 24 showed the HD DVD release of American Gangster was the No. 1-selling high-definition release. It’s a different story that the other top 9 discs were Blu-ray. Of all the studio gossip on the HD DVD releases going around, it is learnt that Paramount is already gearing up for some releases on Blu-ray, however Universal, which has never supported Blu-ray will probably have to re-think all its releases. I guess we will just have to wait and watch (pun un-intended).
