i do have both players hd dvd and bd the thing is yes i have a 1.1 bd player and yes there were disks that would not even play not talking about special features the who movie would not play and if any of you have looked around the net there were and will be movies that will not even play on a 1.1 player. the thing i like most about hd dvd players is that people who do not know how to burn iso disks can get updates when you put the movie in and when i buy a disk with a new feature it works. the movie actually plays doesn't say cannot play and have to go to my computer find the right firmware update burn an iso put it in the darn bd player wait a long time ive herd some players wait hour and then oops the iso is bad and you have a door stop well maybe not the manufacturer at my expense will have me ship it back and get it fixed maybe or i can wait a week or 2 and request the manufacturer to send me a dick by mail and yes sorry to say it there were disks that came out before there were firmware updates to help them work (and i mean help)then a week later another one to help it work then another and another........ I like the ethernet port! that came on my hd dvd player from day one. my dad who is retired over 70 asked me which player to buy for his brand new hdtv i explained about the format war told him also that bd will prob win the format war (i thought it would go longer) so i told him to get an hd dvd player because he cannot use a computer to save his life and burning an iso is out of the question and i live like 2000 miles away i cannot do it and him send in for firmware updates from the manufacturer every couple weeks is out of the question. there is my rant i do actually like the extra features in hd dvd but hey they will some day be on bd and not even talking about the audio on hd dvd that are not available on most bd players like true hd dts mastered dts hd that i picked up my new surround sound system for. maybe one day "ALL" bd players will have them but not as of now. Don't get me wrong i really like bd but it a work in progress. Thanks
