I hope blu-ray wins, higher capacity also :)

Oh and i just read that the PS3 will be a Blu-Ray player, so, that give Sony a HUGE edge over HD-DVD, why get HD-DVD when your PS3 plays Blu-ray discs??? And no doubt the PS3 will be HUGE!

Who knows betamax was the better format at the time and vhs still won that battle. Its a right pain having two different formats as you cant play blu ray discs in HD DVD players etc. I will be waiting till one wins then think about buying one. Plus they will probably be big and expensive as hell at the start

I think this whole thing will be determined by the games consoles. More people will buy PS3 rather than xbox 360, therefore the install base for blu ray is larger, even if people don't use it straight away.

I do think it'll win, but the comparison to betamax is valid - you just don't know!
