It is not really a question of fanboyism anymore; companies that previously supported HD-DVD are mass migrating to Blue-Ray, Blue-Ray makes up the vast majority of sales now and retailers only really offer HD-DVD as a secondary choice. Blue-ray has basically won, by the end of the year I wouldn't be surprised if HD-DVD sales stopped completely. At the end of the day taking the price hit to include Blue-Ray on PS3 really paid off.

One thing I do dispute in the review is that the Xbox 360 has no problem rewinding or ff the videos from the marketplace. Actually, any more than 2x is a bit choppy and 8x or more is just rough as can be. This player might be a little more rough doing it but it is not very smooth at any speed searching through videos from the marketplace.

Microsft give its customers the choice on whether to buy the HD DVD drive or not, thereby keeping console cost's down, Sony on the other hand put in the Blu Ray player in every console thereby forcing customers to pay up to $599 or £425, even if you do not have a HDTV you are paying that price for a drive you will only use for games, when Sony could just have put games on DVD's and put a regular DVD player in the less expensive package.

yea their is honestly no difference. Matter of fact, Hd-dvd was better than blu-ray because it had soo many features, but it wasn't built into the xbox360 like blu-ray was....which was a shame that toshiba gave up so easily because this was a really good format.

blu-ray works with a blue laser, hd-dvd doesn't. The advantages of a blue laser are apparent. 30gb tops for hd-dvd, 50gb or more for blu-ray now! it's clearly the better technology, but it is more expensive. you get what you pay for.

Circuit City has discontinued the HD-DVD format so it can expand it's Blu-Ray lineup. It's Blu-Ray inventory is much bigger. Seven Circuit City stores were contacted. Three confirmed that the store has discontinued the HD-DVD format altogether, meaning Blu-Ray exclusive. This decision is probably based on company sales of the two formats which consisted of 87% for Blu-Ray disc and 13% for HD-DVD. It will be any day before Toshiba announces the death of HD-DVD. BLU RAY WINS!!

Interesting. with an extra $200, you get an extra drive, extra wires, extra brick, all taking up extra space and to top it all off... a worthless movie. The ps3 still offers true-hd out of the box, i dont think we see any promises broken. Xbox fans are buying the betamax.
