Default BD=16 bit color, HD-DVD only 8 bit!
So it seems that BD has an advantage in the color bitdepth over HD-DVD with over t 2X the bits devoted to color representation. Amazing. Capacity + Bit Depth. Each pixel's color is described by 16 bits of data for red, gree, blue, and chroma, instead of only 8.

Maybe this is why some think Disney BD's seem much more colorfull than HD-DVD's?

Cheers.
