Home Video Asylum

TVs, VCRs, DVD players, Home Theater systems and more.

Have you bought into an HD video format yet ? Are you even thinking about it ? or simply trolling ?

If still undecided, go do your homework. There's plenty of FUD (particularly with regards to HD-DVD survivability) and counter-FUD going around the internet.

My take: Studio support and superior storage capacity/bandwidth give Blu-Ray the edge. Other's will disagree, some vehemently (mostly those who've bought HD-DVD hardware).

BTW, I can play both formats so I won't exactly be SOL if by some infinitesimal chance Blu-Ray loses. Same with SACD/DVD-A though clearly... "#10 !" (remember the hi-rez forum format wars?) ; DVD-A has already been trumped by Blu-Ray discs with 5.1 24/96 uncompressed PCM soundtracks AND hi-def video.
