Wink Blu-ray / HD DVD on Vista


September 6th, 2007
A Blu-ray / HD DVD update by Ed Botts.
Last week I listed the six essential hardware and software pieces you need to successfully play back a commercially produced high-definition disk in either the Blu-ray or HD DVD format. Over the weekend I had a chance to put both formats to the test. Setup took minutes, and the results were literally breathtaking. Oh, and despite the dire predictions of DRM doom-and-gloomers, I didn’t have to deal with Vista’s DRM at all. (Yes, you read that right: no Vista DRM. Keep reading for the details.) -- snip--

I'll wait until someone makes a final decision. Either format can become the supreme format, or perhaps a combination of the two.

having tried both i would say there pretty similar, i just like the boxes blu-ray movies come in. The HD-DVD movies come in a yucky brown box, looks like an old book lol
