    Default blu ray or hd?

    looks like blu ray already has a burner announced. Which do you think will be better?

    Blu ray is far superior. They have the technology up to 40gb of storage on one disk now. It is like a second hard drive! Besides HD DVD still uses red lasers and that limits them the blu has a shorter wavelength and frequency so it can read smaller bits of data. The red is limited by size.

    BluRay because I'm a Sony fanboy. Also because you can theoretically have 100GB discs. Wouldn't that be so sweet?

    fact: different = abnormal
    observation: everyone is different, therefore everyone is abnormal
    conclusion: there is no normal, express yourself

    100gb is far off though, maybe 2 years. Unless they already have the technology but are withholding it to make profit on lower tech bluray then realeasing high tech bluray and making more. Sound business strategy but tends to piss of the wiser consumers.

    You can only get 100GB on blueray disc is you use triple layers. I read this before.

    I think HD-DVD will be a poor man's Blu-ray but Blu-ray is going to be very expensive to produce. I'm in support of both..... I just hate one console using the blu-ray.
