My guess both formats will go for 1080p. Current DVDs are technically 480p encoded and are downconverted to lower resolutions. Since Blu-Ray has a maximum capacity of 54 gigabits I am sure there is more then enough room for 1080p. True if Blu-Ray uses MPEG-4 it will definutly be far superior to HD-DVD. But I personally doubt they will do so. Sony has said that MPEG-2 is the way to go. Currently I am fimly with HD-DVD.
