HD/Blu Ray DVD Player

Jim · 2006-12-06, 03:23 AM

I have been thinking lately about getting a High Definition DVD player. The problem is, this HD or Blu Ray format seems a lot like VHS vs Beta max years ago.

So, I looked for a single DVD player that will play regular DVDs, HD DVDs and Blu Ray DVDs. At this time, there is no such animal. And, probably, there never will be. It seems that it may be more of an Apple vs PC analogy than the other.

Is this true? Is there no way to build a DVD player that will play all 3 formats?
