    Blu-Ray falls off a bit, HD-DVD jumps a few steps ahead.

    log in required :(

    I am starting to wonder how wise/unwise Sony's decission to go Blu-Ray for the PS3 was. And how much trouble and delays that has caused them. Last I read is that the latest delays expected are partially atributed to Blu-Ray ... but you can never trust those sites that never state a source!

    don't care either way, when they are released i will care ^_^

    i'm sure both will do perfectly fine and if they don't a company will lose some money, maybe some really rich guy will get fired, so sad......

    the only way of knowing which is going to be better is wait and see.

    when it is released the only thing that truly has any say about anything is the PS3. people will buy that over a standard player without batting an eye.

    nope i take that back........don't care.

    blah blah blah, by the time either is ready for real use a better storage will probably be out anyway.
