Richter says the HD DVD name will ultimately help it win the format war because it's an easier connection for consumers. "If you buy an 'HD TV,' the natural choice is to buy an 'HD DVD' player to go with it," he said. "Are there any 'Blu-ray TVs'? No."
He said there is truth to the legend that the adult industry helped decide the battle between Betamax and VHS, and that the comparison appears to fit the current situation. As in the current fight, it was harder for adult film makers to get technical help from Betamax.
But Wicked's Ramos demurred on the VHS/Betamax question. "I don't think the adult industry decided that. It was one factor, but not thefactor," he said.
He had his own prediction on who will ultimately decide the winner between HD DVD and Blu-ray Disc.
"It will probably be Wal-Mart," he said.
