The film grain is there for a reason. If the Director and Director of Photography didn't want film grain they would choose film stock known for having little grain. Complaining about film grain is like complaining about 24 frames per second. Everyone knows it causes motion isues but stylistically that's what filmmakers love and feel comfortable with.
There's supposed to be a firmware update coming for HD-DVD players that should rid the players of certain issues. I doubt Blu Ray sees as many issues because they aren't rushing product out to hit the market first.
I expect a few glitches but not as many as HD-DVD. I'll own both myself I figure the more options the better
