Well, I did it. A couple weeks ago, I broke down and bought one. A huge bonus here is the upconversion for standard DVDs on my HDTV. Really nice.

I’m waiting for the bell to officially ding before I plunk down anymore money on HD equipment. That said, I hope Blu-Ray wins because it’s more fun to say than HD-DVD. I mean, say it out loud – Blu-Ray. Now say HD-DVD. It’s hard to say without pausing. For that reason and that reason alone, I am declaring Blu-Ray the winner

I’m partisan on this one, but hell yes Blu-Ray won. Looks like Toshiba and company are going to drag this out as long as they can, but my bet is we see both Universal and Paramount go blu by year’s end. (Assuming the rumors of them having opt-outs in their exclusive HD-DVD contract are true.) At that point, it’s officially over for HD-DVD. Jump on the bandwagon, Greg. Join us!
