Is it just me or is this article devoid of anything useful and a very, very poorly written technical article? It came out of our school newspaper.

Since 1997, the DVD format has conquered the home-video market that once was ruled by VHS. In the current era of the DVD phenomenon, Blu-ray and HD DVD have been continuous competitors in the battle for high-definition video formats. Now, Wal-Mart Stores, Inc. has chosen to only sell Blu-ray DVDs in its stores.

Wal-Mart announced its decision to sell only Blu-ray DVDs and drop the selling of HD DVDs in its 4000 stores across the U.S. last week in response to consumer preferences.

"We've listened to our customers, who are showing a clear preference toward Blu-ray products and movies with their purchases," said head of home entertainment for Wal-Mart, Gary Severson.

According to CD-Writer.com, the basic principles and structure of the two formats are the same. The main difference lies in the amount of storage capacity.

CD-writer.com said Blu-ray discs allow a capacity of 25Gb and an approximate amount of 50Gbs on a dual layer disc. An HD DVD will hold about 20Gb and 45Gbs on a dual layer disc. As a result, several movie studios made the decision to concentrate on Blu-ray DVDs as the technology of the future.

Manhattan Wal-Mart electronics associate Justin Adams said this was a good decision because it will decrease the amount of uncertainty for consumers.

"Some movies either appear in Blu-ray or HD DVD, but most of the studios chose Blu-ray," he said.

Adams said the main difference between the two formats is the level of capacity. He said Wal Mart chose Blu-Ray because it was the popular choice for most movie and game studios. The current "it" gaming system, Playstation 3, uses the Blu-ray format and was a big factor in choosing Blu-ray over HD, he said.

Recent K-State graduate Tom Swift said he is content with Wal-Mart's recent decision.

"This just means now there's really only one format that people have to choose from," he said. "Its better for me because that's the kind of format that I had."

Swift, who owns a Playstation 3, said although consumers now have Blu-ray as a choice, it is the better decision as far as quality.

"As far as quality, Blu-ray does hold more - the HD DVD players were just cheaper than Blu-ray," he said.

Swift said the price of Blu-ray DVD players are declining and the discs have always been the same price as HD DVDs. If people are interested in gaming, Blu-ray is the way to go, he said.

I need a new preamp, but I want a new pistol too, and I can't have both.

yeah, that article wasn't too great. a lot of circling around and straying off the point at the end. looked like me trying to write something in English I had no clue about so I brought up the same point in different ways
