Question if hd-dvd wins and that's what it looks like..would it be impossible for sony to switch to HD-DVD for the the ps4? Because that would be sweet. Its not like microsoft has financial ties with them..or do they?

MS and Toshiba are the two major figures backing the format, so I don't know how it would work, but Sony would have to pay both for the use of the techb

I will never own a hd-dvd player EVER they are only making this go longer because they payed Paramount the only $150 milllion they had to buy exclusive. Any one who buys the next betamax is just retarted blu-ray is clear winner because it has Spiderman, 007, and Disney. And let me just remind you of this when Vhs and betamax was at war the Vhs on paper was not even close to as good as betamax but the only reasion why Vhs won was because of Disney and now Disney has chosen the best so really Blu-ray can ride on Disney and still win if they wanted to. Also let me remind you of this too as long as this war keeps going we have to pay for it with scraping out $40 of lose change on a movie in hd and hd-dvd only fuled its losing format so now YOU have to pay.

If I had a 360 I'd probably just continue downloading HD content over buying that add-on.

Transformers will be great in HD.

Shrek 3 was just an overall awful mess.

1. VHS won because the porn industry picked it.
2. Spiderman 3 died out 3 weeks after it opened, because it sucked, i was there day 1 to see it and it blew it was the worst freaking one, and sam rami should die for making it. No spiderman fan is going to waste their money on that trash.

Porn is on Blu-ray. That's not an issue anymore. Besides, I'm sure some people would rather avoid watching porn in HD -- even some of the performers are skeptical about it. But yes, Betamax died because of its lack of porn.

And Spiderman 3 is awful but I'm sure it'll sell regardless, because people are dumb.

Satanas, I am a little with you on the download thing...but I like to own movies as well, not just rent them.  So yeah, I may buy the add-on.  Don't really care who wins, If there is even a winner, or whatever.  I just want to be able to own the movies that I watch in High Def.  I think this whole WAR thing is getting far too retarded...This said, I think it's time to start buying hd dvds, LOL, I have 72 Blu Ray movies as of now.  God, I have no life.    Oh, and yeah, Spiderman 3 sucked major, as did shrek 3....Whoever buys those is just catering to their children. Transformers might be cool...  The Host is pretty good on blu ray (I have noticed that alot of asian film studios are going blu ray, too...most of my BDs are Asian Horror).

Well I know if I got a 360 I'd personally be OK with simply downloading as that seems to be the best way to get HD content for it. Whereas the PS3's easiest method for this is Blu-ray.

All I'm saying is I'd rather use those ways to get the content so that I do not end up spending more money on peripherals. I guess if you have interest in HD DVD itself though the add on is fine, or owning the discs themselves. Agreeably, I like owning the cases too. But even with Paramount and Universal I wouldn't shell out more cash for the add-on.

Then again I'd probably get the Elite so I'd have a lot of room for HD content.

I still don't see whats wrong with DvD, its cheap easy and everyone has one, I don't like the fact that i have to buy a new tv and a new player to enjoy the movies.

i'm still happy with DVD, it kinda annoys me after spending bucketloads of money on building up a dvd collection a few years ago that was touted as the next big thing that they have released something to replace it so quickly just to make me in the end to go rebuy everything yet again for 'hd' quality.

When you watch DVDs on my LCD TV you'll see why I buy Blu-ray.

Redefines crap, upscaled or not. Once I saw The Departed in HD I stopped my skepticism.
