i actually prefer blu ray since it has uncompressed PCM which hd-dvd titles do not.
the thing that really pisses me off though is all the releases with mpeg-2 crap which is what caused artefacting on dvd to begin with.
VC-1 and avc titles are much better looking.
24 frames per second playback is also a must so blu ray wins again.
HD-DVD players can decode uncompressed PCM. Whether the studios are putting it on the discs is another matter. See here.
Both formats do 24p as well. See the previous link.

wow so you are able to do something george lucas can't avoid major artefacting and blockiness like the awful gout.

This has nothing to do with mpeg2 and everything to do with Lucas using a laserdisc master from 1997. Any other DVD that has been remastered properly doesn't have this problem. Please stop blaming mpeg2 on what is so clearly a Lucas problem.
