Wei, I totally understand what you're saying. I had the 360 HD-DVD player for a while myself... and I watched King Kong QUITE a few times. More often than not, I found myself wishing for many of the titles that Blu-Ray had. It was more than just a "Grass is Greener" kind of thing, there's just more to choose over there. Fortunately (or Unfortunately) the HD-DVD drive developed a weird skipping problem and was returned to the store.

I picked up a PS3 a little later on, and frankly it seems like the right choice as far as movies are concerned. There's just a ton of content right now, and it's content I actually want to watch rather than transfers of much older films that seem to be HD-DVD's lifeblood. Regardless of what the HD-DVD crew is saying, I don't know how much life the disc's got in it. Even if both formats are totally gone in 3 years due to some High Definition earthquake, I'll still have tons of movies that I like in a Blu-Ray collection... and that's what's important. I can enjoy that format now, and HD-DVD seems like a waiting game.
