Exactly what I thought Jake. Greed says "cool", but knowing that this will just drag out the format war makes me think "not cool". I just wish we weren't even in this boat. I am biased, because I am a big Sony fan, but it's clearly the better technology.

The crappy thing is they are nearly identical technologies as far as how they work. Whereas DVD and Dvix were much different in format and their approach marketing wise. There is nothing that will make Blu-Ray and HD-DVD die. HD-DVD will be big because of it's name, period. Blu-ray won't die the same way Sony won't let minidisc die in the US (actually huge in Asia), they are stubborn.

Oh well, greed wins, I'll likely get a dual player.
