bboyminnn:

Correct me if I am wrong, but won't the HD-DVD's 
still play on a normal DVD player? 

I heard that somewhere but don't know where and
don't know how reliable the source is. But
I was under the impression that the data density
on an HD-DVD was high enough that both the HD
version of the movie and the standard version
was on the disk.

Anybody know if this is right?
