HD-DUD

Another name for HD-DVD, a high-def video disc format standardized by Toshiba that is apparently losing to Blu-ray, which is another high-def video disc format standardized by Sony. Both formats use blue laser technology vs. red laser used for CDs and DVDs.

news junkie: "I read that Warner is going Blu-ray exclusive, and now all major studios support Blu-ray, except for Universal and Paramount."

HD-DVD fanboy: "HD-DVD is still cheaper than Beta-ray"
Blu-Ray fanboy: "yeah, but Blu-ray has more potential, and more industrial support than your HD-DUD"
average consumer: "Blu-ray? HD-DVD? fuck both, I'll stick with DVD for now"
