If you're wanting to buy hd dvd player for your home DVD collection. There are a few things I want for you to ask before you make your buy.
1: Are you wanting your new hd player to be in the hi-def format only?
2: Do you have enough of hi-def DVDs to validate the purchasing of a device that's in just one format?
If you responded NO to just one of the questions above but you do have hd dvds in your home film library. Then you want to do what I did. That's get a Blu Ray hd combo player. Why you ask? Simply because of the fact that Blu-Ray won the format war and all films now are coming out in Blu/Ray hi-def format only.
I'm sure I was like many who actually thought the war would have been won by the HD format. So I just continued acquiring several flicks reject Blu ray all together. Man was I ever surprised when the statement came on who won.
At that time I knew I had a choice to make here in the very near future. I could just not purchase any more movies in hi-def 'which would now be in Blu/Ray' or I could extend my film collection but I would also have to buy HD DVD player/Blu-Ray combo if I wanted to watch my current collection along with the new movies I'd be buying.
There were a few reasons I selected to go with a combo player vs individual units to play my dvds.
1: The requirement and cost of extra cables were not needed.
2: The hook up was much faster to both my surround sound and television.
3: The operation was alot simpler when it came to watching the movies irrespective of which format they were in.
My proposal is before you buy hd dvd player for your home theater, consider getting a player that plays both formats. You will be so glad you did!
