Reminds me of the Bluray vs. HD-DVD wars (or even Beta and VHS if you want to go further back).

When Bluray finally announced their killing blow to HD-DVD in 2008, it literally took 1 day for the scales to tip for the final time.

Much like this time, Bluray / HD-DVD was based not entirely on technology (both formats had many technological similarities), but on licensing to other companies. Interesting.
