Hi Def DVDs Next Month?

Paper or Plastic?
VHS or BETA?
MAC or PC?
UK or UL (ok that's a kentucky thing...)

These questions have alway split us in half, dividing us into two parts of the same whole, further segmenting us away from our fellow brothers and sisters. In the next two months, we will be haunted by yet another meandering question: Blu-ray or HD DVD?

Everyone knows I've been on my high-deffinition kick for a while now. I make no subtleties about my love for 61 inches of hi-def, ass smashing TV with tripple the pixels, twice the brightness and 100 times the clarity. If you aren't watching your favorite programming in hi- def by now, then my cyborg heart and hyper evolved retinas weep for thee.

The one issue I have (other than I can't sit in front of it continuously, 24 hours a day) is the whole DVD controversy. We've hashed over this before, but it looks like Sony has released a May launch date for their Blu-ray DVD players and accompanying hi-def DVD titles.

Toshiba plans on releasing the competitor player, known as the HD DVD format, as early as March. The Hi-Def DVD Standard war is about to begin!
