The main problem I have with Blu Ray is the price. It's like the PS3 - I don't have a prob with it at all - except for the high price tag. For me, it's all about value. And there are tons of movies on BR I would love to have, but the price of admission isn't where I want it to be. If they were the same, I would buy both ...

Ok! It sounds like you're a bit of a movie fan and like some of the BD movies as well but the price of the player is scaring you away. I was actually hoping that you or twesterm or one of the other big HDDVD people would check out this thread.

And price is really the point of my thread but i'm not going to get to the punch line yet. But what if BD players were only $100 and HD-DVD players say $50? Would the lower price points get you to switch?

I don't really care for HD-DVD one way or the other (same feelings for BluRay though I still haven't gotten my BR movie yet-- though assume it's going to be the same).  I do admit that with HD-DVD at least the difference was a lot more than I expected (and expect the same for BR) so at least watching the HD format is worth it.  When one format wins I'll actually start buying movies until then, I'm going to continue to be a Netflix fiend.
