I did a research paper comparing Blu-ray to HD-DVD and I'm telling you Blu-ray will be the wave of the future. Develop to record HDTV and overcome the capacity limit of modern DVD disc. Sony Playstation 3 will be using Blu-ray. HD-DVD is no match for Blu-ray when it comes to data transfer and storage capacity but it has some advantages, HD-DVD is cheaper and backward compatible with older DVD player but not Blu-ray. I hear sony will develop a 8 layer version that can support up to 200GB on a single medium.
