Dual-Layer disks have also been made for the first time which includes a HD-DVD on one layer
and a Blu-Ray on the other.
In 2 years IMO both formats will still be around with fairly even market - maybe 40:60 either way but dual players will become common place much like DVD + and - writers

lg have just been demonstrating there player that plays both formats in vegas:cool: its not cheap though:|
both will be visually stunning and both will play at 1080p, though people do seem to be leaning more towards HD-DVD in terms of picture quality and it being the format that will come out on top.
to give you an idea of the picture quality at a stand at this vegas show there were 5 basketball players bouncing the ball and inbetween each one was a screen that produced a basketball player doing the same and it was nearly impossible to tel the difference!

blue-ray holds more data.
blue ray is more expensive, as are the players.
your tv will play both dont worry.
my advice just wait for a few years lol the prices are still to high, or if you fancy one now get a 360 and the hd-dvd addon, as i think its better value than getting a hd-dvd player for £499 or a blue ray player for £999.
mind you its been a while since i looked prices might have changed by now.

Sorry if this is a repost of is just plain thinkness! i just have two questions about this?
1 - Whats the Differenace?
2 - I have only recently bought a HD ready TV, does that mean if blu Ray wins the battle that my TV will be Obsolete? or will my TV play both?
thanks
