That's why I said "So to sum up how I interpret the current state of things... "
It was more to say... so is that the reality of it or is there information I've missed? Not to say, this is how it is...can't believe you were all so un-enlightened before I got here, etc.

Any Sony condescension I've got, I've earned in dollars wasted on crappy car cd players and the one year old external dvd burner I'm looking at right now that no longer recognizes cd's... while connected to a Sony laptop no less. That's like expecting no disdain for MS after living through Windows 95 and 2000.

So yeah, on 20 gb worth of storage difference for the foreseeable future(which is admittedly a pretty big deal) I was mis-informed. So all Sony and PS3 hype aside, is that the fundamental difference? If so, I still maintain that for Joe Sixpack, price and available titles will be more important. If he's standing in Bestbuy looking at the HD-A1 for $499/360 add-on for $140-200 vs bdp-1000/bdp-s1 for $999. Factor in that he can flip the hybrid-discs to watch the dvd side at his buddy Earl's house and it could make for a rough year for Blu-ray.
I look forward to seeing what everyones' thoughts are this time next year as that'll likely be when I invest in both my projector and a hi-def player and/or ps3. Here's to hoping Sony (and co.) reign in the prices so the format with more room for expansion wins out.
