If they go HD-DVD then they can't play BluRay movies.

 Why?

@Squilliam

Do they still use VC-1?

 

...because HD-DVD and BluRay are two different things.  That's like asking why a CD player can't read a DVD.

Unless you're asking that they put in a HD-DVD and a BluRay player which is just silly (especially since we're talking about price).
