HD DVD or Blu Ray (not what you think)

This isn't another whats better/what do you prefer thread, this is purely for me to help decide.

Unless things change ie Warner changes its mind, there is no point in buying into HD-DVD as good as it is

I'd go for HD DVD if I had to choose one or the other at the moment due to this story...

Thats assuming you're talking about standalone players.

Microsoft has come out and continues to support HD-DVD..Not enough to include it in their XBOX360 though.By the end of 2008 there will very little of interest released on HD-DVD Sorry thats juat the way it is...Wait and see..Most Blu-Ray owners 6+mil have PS3`s no problem at all with upgrading firmware

Good points, I personally haven't looked in great depth into either format as I'm not looking into getting either in the near future. I'm happy with my DVD's.

I understand that the firmware thing is a null point if going along the PS3 route but for standalone players it must be a big dissapointment to know that you will not be able to use half the features of future Discs.

As I say I haven't really looked into it so I may be wrong.
