    My recollection is that porn companies initially backed HD-DVD. I distinctly remember thinking it would win for that reason.

    Blu-ray won at least partially because the PS3 was the cheapest next-gen optical player, while Xbox360 didn’t support HD-DVD without an expensive add-on. (And stand-alone players for either were very expensive.)
