Blu-Ray will slightly look better (more noticeable
the larger the screen size), and in the absolute
sense, it also has slightly better sound. These
reasons are because of the higher resolution
capabilities of Blu-Ray and more memory
space available than with the HD DVD.

My brother has a blue-ray participant and that i only offered the Toshiba HD-A2 hd dvd participant. both have a good image. I in elementary words have a 1080i television so thats why i purchased the hd-a2. ( no favor to spend the extra earnings case you could not use its finished res.) the in elementary words element i noticed is that the upconversion of time-honored dvds is more advantageous suited with my HD DVD participant. the different element replaced into cost HD DVD is more on your price range payed 275.00 at Sears. The Audio is likewise awsome with both. i'm a HD DVD guy each and each and every of ways yet I even ought to assert that is a very close call. you could not free both way. (Netflix rents both formats)

Video resolution and sound I would say are equal. What isn't equal is storage (HD holding roughly 20gb on reg, 40gb on double layer; and 25gb on Bluray, we have yet to see the promised 50gb double layers.) The other inequality is where the data lies on the disc. The HD holds the data on the back of the label, so when it gets burned, the data has a lot of plastic between it and the touchable surface. The Bluray lies at a more shallow point on the disc meaning that the Bluray disc wont be able to take as much abuse. One final high point for the HD is that there will be DualDiscs available, but none for the Bluray. (DualDisc is a DVD on one side and HDDVD on the other.)

Both formats output up to 1080p and the different surround formats. They will both look and sound the same.
On paper, BluRay is slightly better because it can store up to 50GB with dual-layer and has a faster bit-rate than HD-DVD. In reality, this will not make much a difference.
My advice is to wait until the format war is over with, then buy. For now, just enjoy 480p DVD's and 720p/1080i TV and gaming. Save your money, when TV's get cheaper, 1080p technology gets better and high def DVD players get cheaper.

Both of these responses are vaguely right. There is no clear winner in quality or functionality yet, but both HD-DVD and Blu-ray media hold video that is 1080p and both have digital surround sound. This means that it can be up to the player that you buy. I don't know why people are so interested in jumping on the bandwagon of HD-DVD and Blu-ray before there is a clear-cut winner.

Blue-ray discs can hold more information. It also depends on the bit rate transfer of the particular movie or music disc. They both give you an high def picture but I would choose blue-ray all the way.
