in my view the problem is that there is still doubt over the better format, in the ps2 era DVD was already established to a degree without any other major formats (with movies like the matrix launching a thousand dvd players) and as far as i can tell the first consumer blue ray player will be the PS3, and despite that it is more likely to 'win' over HD DVD, i would rather not gamble that much money on a product unless I know its going to be the better supported one.

in the end i hope one of the formats, hd-dvd or blu-ray vanish quickly as i dont want to juggle 2 different formats for movies.

(oh and if we are going to stop using betamax references i guess we could use UMD instead :P)
