Competition = good for consumers... Basic economic principle... I just cant understand the people who want Blu Ray to win. They say it'll end consumer confusion but  its really  not confusing. For example..

Employee: Hi how can I help you?

Consumer: I wanted a high definition player but i'm so confused..

Employee: Well there are two competing types. Much like the betamax and vhs wars.

Consumer: oh yes i remember that

Employee: The main difference is Blu Ray has larger discs, and Hd Dvd have lower prices.

Consumer: well do movie companies make movies for both formats?

Employee: Here is a list of what companies back each format. Pick the companies you like and decide if the corresponding player is in your price range.

Consumer: Well thank you, that was not nearly as confusing as the Blu Ray fanboys were making it seem. Good thing my IQ is about 12
