The expected clash between the two media formats vying for the HD crown has so far been quite the letdown. Plagued by production setbacks (the seeming lack of the blue laser diode required for both HD DVD and Blu-ray drives is often blamed for the production issues), Sony's Blu-ray has yet to make the substantial impact the company hopes. Meanwhile, the issues with Blu-ray have delayed Sony's new console, the PlayStation 3 and though the console is finally available now, supply is very limited, with production numbers falling far behind competitors like Nintendo's Wii.
