Curious if anyone on here has bought into either format. I got weak a while back and got a Blu-ray standalone player to go with my HD-DVD standalone. Seems like the format "war" is kind of at a stalemate for the time being. After having both for a while, I have to admit they both look equally amazing. I guess it's just up to which studios support which format exclusively in the end.
