A Brief Introduction...

So, you're considering jumping into the HD Format War. You don't quite fancy yourself an early adopter. No, that's all too risky. You're the type of person who wants assurance before buying into anything, correct? I'm assuming the answer is yes if you've yet to buy into either next gen format.

There is a lot of information out there, surely enough to dissuade your typical consumer who just wants to enjoy the benefits of pure HD content without the headache and potential financial kick in the nuts following the demise of a defunct and incompatible next gen format.

Who will it be? HD DVD or Blu-ray? Which has a higher capacity? What does 1080p mean? Who has the most studio support? What about the actual HD content, who offers the most films? Are either formats region encoded?

These questions, and many more will be answered throughout this blog. If you ever have any questions feel free to comment here and I will address them as quickly as possible.

My goal is to be as unbiased as possible in my presentation of HD DVD news. We are far from a victory for either side, and in the end it all may prove to be a stalemate. Who knows what tomorrow will hold for either format, but until there is a definitive answer to the pressing question all we can do is sit back and enjoy the ride.
