Just to elaborate one more thing,Maybe it's true for Samsung player 1st generation ,and limitation to BD-25 .what you have mention about using VC-1 against MPEG2 this is cannot be applied to BD25 even with 5GB less in Space.
MPEG2 does prove itself as a powerful codec with many titles except for some like Fifth element according to my opinion should release this title once BD-50 is in production as now.Many Titles using MPEG2 on BD25 proves its Picture Quality Like tears of the Sun,Terminator 2,Lord of war,Into the blue,Swat,Stargate, and let's not forget MI3 done only on BD-25 and has superior picture ect...Now With Mpeg2 on BD50 Picture Quality is more better and superior to VC-1 of the same title done for Both like Paramount titles MPEG 2 does prove its superiority over VC-1 , have a look on highdefdigest.com or Hometheaterspot and see those two Paramount titles We were soldiers and The manchurian candidate using MPEG-2 against VC1 have equally picture of their counterpart or even better.
last thing to mention i wanna blame warner for using the same compression for Superman returns on blu-ray and HD-DVD ,if Superman Returns got MPEG2compression on Blu-ray the picture quality will exceed HD-DVD .
FOX Titles,Paramount,Buena Vista,Lionsgate are doing great JOB and Sony at first of a couple release was lost especially when Fifth element got a desperate review,but now and since middle of August is doing a great effort and Great job too.
Just i would like for Warner to Coop with both release equally and not only favour HD-DVD over Blu-Ray.
