Through my eyes, I like going with the side that has put the most thought into creating a format for the future. In the end, Blu-ray is clearly the format with the most thought about the future.
Blu-ray is still going along according to plan. They've had to move faster than they expected, but the process was well thought out. HD DVD would have to make all these changes to their final plans to try to make it work in a futureproofing capacity. Hell, they couldn't even provide King Kong with a lossless audio track due to bandwidth issues and that was within the first couple of months of launch! Then, space is a issue with HD DVD. They can't fit LOTR:RoTK EE on a disc. To be on a side where the creators didn't even see this coming is chilling.
It makes you think about what else HD DVD creators forgot about that hasn't been brought to light, yet.
