It should be noted that this was written by a blogger and contains several inaccuracies. Also, I couldn't find any information on Home Media Research. Has anyone else ever heard of them?

[joey0480]

I sure haven't and i read usa today quite often.

Home Media is the source of all of the sales numbers from Nielsen, so they're pretty unimpeachable.

I have heard of Home Media Research. USA is a well known paper so I dont see a reason to dispute the story. Those sales numbers are not that wide of a margin to start thinking that hd dvd is going down,imho. I thought they would be closer than that but still...it is not that dominating over hd dvd. This holiday season should prove to be very intersting and hd dvd needs to come out with some great, must have exclusives to combat the onslaught of great titles coming this fall from camp blu.

Good to know. Thanks.

Does anyone know when or where they announced the sales ratio for 300?

Hey, Peter, you should have plugged the Smackdown Forum.

Here is the link to Home Media Magazine and last week's Nielsen #'s that are referenced in the article. It is on page 3, but also in the sales ranks forum. The 300 news should be in Friday's edition.
