A comparison of Blu Ray vs Hd for picture quality

I've been saying this to anyone who will listen, if the new formats do not improve on the flaws of broadcast HD (namely compression artifacts) then I will not buy them.

If its true BR is flawless in the PQ area and HD-DVD suffers from the same problems, then for me the choice is easy.

Let's face it though, while we'd like BR to win this, Sony doesn't exactly have karma on its side. You can see where this is going already. Toshiba releases mediocre HD-DVD and ill informed consumers adopt it, clueless as usual and always dragging down A/V for the rest of us.

Or maybe they both remain strong enough that the universal player makes the argument moot.
