The problem is for me, i'm not going to buy any more HD DVD's now - I'm not going to invest in something which might well not work in the long term now.
I'm a Microsoft fanboy and have supported HD DVD from the beginning. I'm just sick of all the swinging around from which side is winning each week!
Region protection bothers me dramatically. I loved that about HD DVD. But, if Slysoft get AnyDVD working 100% with all the titles, which we all know they will - It shouldn't be too bad.
I can see why HD downloads are so popular now though. No fuss about which format, and most of them come in WMV HD for xbox playing. Cheap hard drives, Fast connections.. I'd happily pay $20 for a movie download in HD than a disk. Lets hope Microsoft can get something sorted in that space soon.
