High fidelity peer pressure

One thing that I thought of recently is that, if you do plan on getting a high definition movie player, you should consider what your friends also have. Friends are a good source of free and convenient movie rentals, after all, and if they all have one format and you have the other, then it's not as useful. In my case, I can only think of one person in Washington who has a Blu-Ray player (a PS3 of course; nobody actually owns a Blu-Ray player), but I know a lot of people who have HD-DVD players.

Are you actually interested in a high deginition movie player or just random musings?

Depends on the cost.

I'm still waiting to see if one formate kills off the other before I invest in one over the other.

So's everyone else.

Considering where you work, I'd think HD-DVD would be the route you take.
