I don't care so much for how well the Pop-up menus work...

Instead, I'm far more interested in the movie playback quality. Both formats have their fair share of video duds and masterpieces and your results will vary with the movies/studios you select. Even the "masterpieces" have their video issues. Of course, anytime the studios go with a high(er) bit video encode, it shows they are putting a little TLC into giving us good PQ and the results show. The jury is still out on what constitutes a "good enough' video bitrate for outstanding PQ but I'm betting on Blu-Ray to continue to have an edge in this regard until HD-DVD convinces me otherwise. Blu-ray has hit a few home runs with their high(er) video bitrate encodes on 50G discs. Can't say the same for HD-DVD yet; maybe King Kong but I think it's been trumped already. YMMV.
