You mention the arrival of new Blu-ray features like it's a good thing. The fact that they have been on the market for this long without a finalized spec is ridiculous, especially when HD-DVD came to market with a finalized spec from day one.

Personally, I own both formats, and for a number of reasons I currently prefer HD-DVD.

The only reason why I'm bringing up the new feature set from Blu-Ray is because any advantage HD-DVD has over Blu-Ray is diminishing.

There are only two advantages to HD-DVD, one is price, and the other is exclusivity of certain movie studios. Blu-Ray has exclusivity of different movie studios, so it really depends on what you want, but in terms of storage, features, streaming rate, sales, overall movie quality (video+sound), Blu-Ray is either the same or better.
