I have every USA released HD DVD title and about 50 BD titles and have watched most at least once.
Some of the concerts, like Chicago/Earth Wind and Fire, The Eagles, Pat Methany, Barry Manilow and some of the classical titles are playing in our store every day. We all love them.
I'm planning on purchasing an XBox 360 with the HD DVD add-on.
My titles so far: (only one. I figure I might as well buy the media before I actually get the player, right?)
1. BATMAN BEGINS (DOP: 04/06/07) 2. The Adventures of Robin Hood (On order) 3. ....
And here's the wishlist: APOLLO 13 BLACK RAIN (Really considering purchasing the Japanese version since it contains interviews from the Japanese cast.) The Bourne Identity (Pondering about keeping my C.E. DVD since it has DTS and certain features. Should I hit up DVDCompare.net?) The Bourne Supremacy Casablanca CASINO The Chronicles of Riddick: PITCH BLACK The Chronicles of Riddick Enter the Dragon FIREWALL (Can someone PM me the pro's and con's with combo discs? I'm extremely careful with my collection.) GoodFellas KING KONG MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE - Ultimate Missions Collection THE MUMMY THE MUMMY RETURNS A Scanner Darkly Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow Sleepy Hollow (I also see there's a BR version out but doesn't have the DD+ track. Since I'm technically "purple", should I just get the HD DVD anyway?) THE THING
I'm actually going PURPLE! And as such, can we have some objective comparisons of films released on both formats for those who're also going purple?
Is that for the MSRP? It's actually going to be a couple months before I actually buy both the XBox 360 (going to take advantage of Costco's bundle thing) and the add-on.
I only have 2 titles right now...The HD-A2 I had bought a month ago had a failed firmware update on the 2nd day and had to be sent in for servcing. I just received a brand-new replacement player direct from Toshiba's factory the other day.
1. Charlie & The Chocolate Factory 2. Children Of Men (I've got one of the defective, unplayable discs - I'll be exchanging it tomorrow for a new one, and hopefully pick-up one or 2 new HD DVDs to add to my collection).
^ Does "The Game" look decent enough to upgrade from SD-DVD? I have the old non-anamorphic release so I'm still going to get it but I just want to know if the disc was mastered from a good transfer.

My collection is growing, slowly. I ended-up getting a refund for Children Of Men after taking home 2 defective discs and going through another 4 or 5 bad ones at the store (I asked Circuit City to test them on their HD-A2 demo unit and none of them would play!). I will repurchase it once Universal gets working copies into stores.
1. Batman Begins 2. Charlie & The Chocolate Factory 3. Tim Burton's Corpse Bride 4. Derailed 5. Dreamgirls 6. Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind 7. A Scanner Darkly
