Besides the BD having a higher bitrate encode, it will also support multiple angles where the HD DVD can not:

How do the alternate angles work with the three different formats?

A second angle is presented during Eraser, Right Where It Belongs, and Beside You In Time, allowing you to watch the projection screen imagery uninterrupted. However, because HD DVD and Blu-ray were still new and developing technologies at the time BYIT was created, the alternate angles do not work the same on all three formats.

On the standard DVD, pressing enter enter during the three songs will toggle between angles. You can also use the angle button on your remote.

On the HD DVD, real-time angle switching was not possible, so the alternate angle is included as a standalone feature.

On the Blu-ray, an option to toggle the angles will appear on the pop-up menu during the three songs. Most Blu-ray players will display a multi-angle icon when multi-angle content is playing. On many players you can turn this icon off in the set-up menu.
