Using data provided by consumer research firm Nielsen VideoScan, Sony found out that:

  • Blu-ray has surpassed HD-DVD in cumulative sales.
  • Blu-ray titles outsold HD-DVD titles by more than a two-to-one margin during the first week of January (47.14 HD DVD titles for every 100 Blu-ray titles)
  • Blu-ray titles outsold HD-DVD titles closer to three-to-one during the second week of the month (38.36 HD-DVD titles for every 100 Blu-ray titles)

We expect to hear back from Toshiba soon but, in the meantime, it looks like Sony finally got one right.
