Can't get enough format war? Wait for Blu-ray vs HD DVD enterprise storage!

We just know no one ever tires of discussion about the format war between HD DVD and Blu-ray, so why should something as obscure as enterprise storage get overlooked? Top Tech News has a short intro piece on archival storage and how the two formats are attempting to get ingrained there, with Blu-ray touting its larger layer size, and HD DVD showing off its perceived lower cost to switch from DVD or other optical formats. We've certainly heard these arguments before when it comes to video storage (although thankfully codecs don't matter here!), but the article mentions that with the costs of disk- and network-based storage being so low, might business even notice which side "wins?"
