Nice stats for DVD + DIVX notes & price declines (you can't compete if you sell just a few players and you have to match a format that is selling 81,000 players a month (and that is just for the US - worldwide it is likely to be double that - DIVX does not have worldwide distribution). Didn't that other article say that DIVX did 2-3 players a month per store. Even at 300 (I think I used 500 earlier) outlets and 10-20 a month that is 3,000 - 6,000 DIVX players a month. So what is better - 6,000 or 160,000... Yup - Good luck Mr. DIVaXed. Will be a niche if that. Also note from article that as price comes down unit sales go up - the essence of technology and the way things in tech world have worked since time immemorial. And those analysts implied that there was technological overfill - silly billy analysts. Finally a happy DVD XMas! Roughly the run-rate is now approaching 2 million players a year worldwide I believe and that is a good thing - here comes the exponential part of the curve I think - LSI at 25% say is thereby at a run-rate of 500,000 players a year or something like $15-25 million a year in sales as a run-rate increasing rapidly): 207.240.177.145 shane.
