I’m looking to buy an HD player, but don’t know if I should go with HD DVD or Blu-ray? Has anyone had any experience with either, good or bad?

Also, what about the media and movies? Is what movie type suppose to be any better than the other, such as picture quality, etc.?I’d also be interested in finding out if there are more movie titles available in HD DVD, Blu-ray or if the same number is available for both.

The battle between HD-DVD and Blu-ray formats for the high-definition movie and HDTV could be over before it really even gets started.

How could this be? The answer is that the home digital storage server could put an end to the high-def DVD media war. Downloading to a terabyte-size digital storage server could be the consumers alternative to buying either Blu-ray or HD-DVD players.

Why buy the high-def DVD players or media discs at all when you can simply download the high definition content? Once Microsoft’s Vista operating system becomes available, there will be a simple way to download high-def content for your HDTV, computer, video iPod, etc.

Is one format better than the other? Will one format die in the end like Beta-Max did to VHS?
