need advice : blu-ray dvd vs hd dvd

[NadB]

am contemplating to buy either an x-box 360 or a ps3....but will use mostly for hi-def movies.

which would you suggest?

pros and cons pls...

No brainer. PS3. Blu-ray won the war. Plus the PS3 is one of the best upconverters for SD.

Since you're going to use it for Hi-def movies, go for the Ps3
If you're however, more into games. go for the Xbox 360

this are p*****d copies of bluray burned into dvd9, better pq than ordinary dvd but definitely inferior vs. orginal blurays 

[NadB]

wow...really, I thought you still can't copy Blu-Ray discs?

you can rip contents, but can't burn them into bluray discs (yet...) that's why the jack sparrows burn them on dvd9 discs.

Also you cannot enjoy the superior AQ that most blu ray titles have...

But what if you have a hybrid player, will you still buy HD-DVD? Especially when most of what's left are dirt cheap

i still will sir, as you said its dirt cheap. sayang yung opportunity to get some good movies at sometimes 500 pesos lang.  although for new releases, no choice but to go bluray.

agree with PS3 (BluRay)

Besides,  I'm beginning to see PC DVD drives that are capable of reading BluRay Discs... Costs around 6k na lang.  If you set up a HTPC you can set one up and start enjoying BD via yout HTPC setup..
