    Thanks! What type of connection do you have?

  5. Re:About this... on Apple Backs Blu-ray · · Score: 1

    Yes, Blu-Ray is a better product. With its codec support being virtually equivalent with that of HD-DVD, the capacity definitely puts it at a distinct advantage. Additional supporting factors for Blu-Ray include:

    Availability of dual-layer burners (while DL Blu-Ray burners have been available in Japan for some time, HD-DVD has yet to announce a DL product or write the HD-DVD-R DL specification.)

    DRM restrictions (Blu-Ray should allow you to take some liberty with your media; at the very least you should be able to copy your Blu-Ray collection. On the other hand, HD-DVD intends to completely prohibit such actions by strict use of Microsoft's DRM technology).

    Please keep in mind that, while the above statements were accurate last time I checked, anything could have changed, rendering them invalid. Please feel free to correct me (I don't know why I'm saying this on Slashdot) if I have made any factual errors or critical omissions.
