I have the capability for it, but I don't currently have it installed. I went with DirecTV instead

Better Be Home Soon (Zune) - Crowded House

I will eventually buy myself some sort of high-def, next-gen, shiny disc movie player but, like everyone else, I think it sucks that right out of the gate I'll have to pick between two incompatible formats (does anyone remember the original DIVX idea?)

So my inital plan (budget notwithstanding) is to buy the PS3 (as much for the Blu-ray player as for the gaming machine) and buy a stand-alone HD-DVD player.

That way, I'll be pretty much covered - as I believe HD-DVD will eventually win out. Ever since the VHS/Beta debacle, Sony has continually tried to sell the world on their own proprietary formats (MiniDisc, ATRAC3, Memory Stick, UMD, etc.) and continually done themselves harm. So, if (when) Blu-ray loses out to HD-DVD, I'll still be ok, as Sony has committed to games in the Blu-ray format for the PS3.

If HD-DVD does lose to Blu-ray I'll guess I'll take a loss on craigslist.


because I want the game machine.
