Sony’s high-definition format which beat out Toshiba’s HD-DVD earlier this year might be a win to be taken in vain if reports are close to right.

Industry professionals are suggesting that because Blu-ray needs so much to work, it’s requirement that users spend a lot to get anything out of Blu-ray might be the very thing which causes it to fail.
