I don't think that D-VHS will be much of a threat because it is based on
old tape technology, and not DVD.

Yes you are correct.  I forgot to mention that the DVD players with DVI
output is upconverted to 1080i and not true 1080i
Here is a link to that current battle:
http://www.marketnews.ca/news_detail.asp?nid=314 look at the list of
supporters of this format (blu-ray disc) at the bottom of the story !
And
someone has the grapes to come up with a competing format ? :
http://www.cebiz.ca/EN/articles/article.php?id=00021

Yep, it's VHS vs BETA again ! Even if HD-DVD is better than Blu-Ray it
probably won't win out. VHS won out over Beta because of three letters "
R C
A"
