Xbox 360 HD DVD addon hits 270,000 sold According to NPD Group sales figures, the Xbox 360 HD DVD add-on hit its 270,000th unit sold in November, representing a small 3.4% attach rate to the console itself which has sold over 9 million consoles.
Last month the HD DVD Promotions Group reported that all "dedicated HD DVD players" including the add on, had sold about 750,000 players through November 25 and these latest figures seem reasonable.

IIRC it's the best selling console add-on unit, ever.

Once they get prices down to sub $100 it'll see sales grow even high (IIRC it's currently $160 or so).

It makes for an excellent little PC ROM device too.

Prices drop and sales go up its common sense.
