If that were the case, then you'd have opted for HD-DVD. They scheduled a press conference to introduce the 51gb disc (yep...one GB more than BD). But when Warners announced BD-only support just HOURS before the scheduled HD-DVD announcement, the press conference was cancelled. So you lost out on the largest capacity disc! (It should also be noted that most BD discs were NOT making use of the 50GB space either...so quality-wise, HD-DVD and BD either looked the same, or the HD-DVD was superior. (I don't recall a single case were a BD trumped an HD-DVD.) But hey...at least HD-DVD would have been able to "...go to 11!")Josh Steinberg said:I never felt any "love" for one vs. the other, I just wanted the one with the bigger storage capacity to win.
Seeing how longer 3D films like "Titanic" and "The Hobbit" (both 1 and 2) already require two Blu-ray discs, I'm glad we wound up with the format with the larger disc space.
