Apple supported Blu-Ray (Score 1)

People believe Apple famously avoids Blu-Ray? In 2005 they were backing it over the competing HD-DVD format. To quote their press release at http://www.apple.com/pr/library/2005/mar/10blu-ray.html

“Apple has a long history of technical innovation around DVD hardware and software, and their support of the Blu-ray Disc format is a testament to their commitment of ongoing innovation. The Blu-ray Disc format provides the immense capacity and the revolutionary functionality that Apple’s loyal customer base will be sure to enjoy,” said Maureen Weber, chief BDA spokesperson and general manager of HP's Optical Storage Solutions Business. “We’re thrilled about Apple joining our 16-member board, and we look forward to working with them on the development and promotion of the Blu-ray Disc format.”
