Welcome to the HD DVD fanboy club...

Picture and Sound quality are all that matter to me. And the format with the best storage capacity and bandwidth has the highest potential of maximizing PQ/SQ within the constraints of the current consumer HD media.

Every other HD DVD advantage is short-term. the dubious benefits of PIP, IME, internet access will eventually work their way to Blu-ray. Economies of scale will eventually take away HD DVD's cost advantage. You need to look at the picture a year or two from now.

HD DVD's only plus from the consumer point of view is Blu-ray's BD+ DRM technonology and region coding. OTOH, these are some of the reasons Fox and Disney will continue to be Blu-ray exclusive.
