everything is coming to Blu-Ray..........eventually....
Blu-Ray won, great! I have a PS3 so I have a Blu-Ray player....and I also have a newer HD DVD player that I bought mere months before it's demise. The end of the format has allowed me to pick up all kinds of flicks on HD DVD dirt cheap on deepdiscount.com. In years to come if my HD DVD player shits the bed, most of the HD DVDs are futureproof with a regular dvd on the flip side that I can still play in my Blu-Ray player.
who really won the war? me.

I've read people have had quite a few problems with blu ray players unless they are the ps3 ones. Not a good start. Also, on most the only way you can update whatever on your machine is via the internet!! I think that's very unfair for people who don't have it...

other way around the PS3 is the last system you want to use as a blu ray player. people have alot of audio issues with blu ray players because they dont do the firmware updates for the player

Really? I've been told by a lot of people who know their stuff on such things and have tried lots of different ones, that currently the PS3 blu ray is the best out there at the moment.

Well, it appears that Blu-ray has now have a champion.
Blu-ray copies of the The Dark Knight have been very positive. Will this boost Blu-ray players and maybe help the PS3?
How will 2009 be for the Blu-ray format? Wait and see more...

True, but I've read that Blu-Ray may be outdated as early as next year..
I'll try to find the article that I read , but it was saying that a company in China is developing something better than Blu-Ray

Heh.
I went to my local video store to, possibly, buy some Blu-ray movies since I finally just now acquired a 50 inch plasma screen.
Dude...............$34.99 for the Dark Knight? $19.99 for Jurassic Park?!? F*cking $17.99 for Poltergeist?!?!?!?
It's a scam, I tell you.
