Kinda cool, you can check out who's winning the format war in realtime:

Heh, crazy good idea there -- cash in on the format war craze with referrrals. I feel so dumb because I did not even think of this...

Wow, interesting. HD DVD clearly has the lead right now. The hardware sales rank speaks volumes.

Interesting stuff... I wonder how things will change over time (in the next 6-12 months -- should be interesting to watch.. hopefully the site stays up).

Nice find.

Not sure what conclusions you can draw from this on the hardware side - the Blu-Ray drives are twice as expensive! Since they are substitutes I'm actually surprised Blu-Ray is even selling as much as it is.

Anyone know how to setup these sort of comparisons on Amazon? When browsing items I don't see any compare options.

That's cool! How do i find the top 10 best seller items on Amazon through that? that will be interesting...

EDIT: got it, but only by category... it will be interesting to know the best selling items throughout all cetegories.

It is probably the cheapest porn flick Amazon offers

Seriously, so far it seems that HD DVD has some headstart over BR. To be continued...
