The are many difference, but, there is one major underlying difference as I will explain as concise as possible.
First off, I must point out Blu-rays enormous disc capacity (25GB single layer, 50GB dual-layer) which allows Sony to burn the discs at full 1080p HD resolution, without compromise.
However, in the case of HD-DVD, Toshiba much first burn the disc with 720p HD resolution then rely on the player itself to convert the content to 1080p. Uh, this is not a great thing.
Some people prefer HD-DVD because the players are "more affordable" and Universal Studios Executive Vice President (Ken Graffeo) is one of them. Others stand by Blu-ray (including me) because we see the technology in Blu-ray as being far superior and therefore worth the extra change.
In my opinion, why invest in a brand new 1080p FULL HD TV and then skimp out on a player over a couple hundred dollar price difference? It just doesn't make sense.
If you're really torn, go for LG's BH100 high definition hybrid player.
