[quote user="kitkat"]I think blu ray is going to win the hd format do you agree? Is it fairly safe to buy a blu ray player?[/quote]
Absolutely. HD-DVD is dead in the water.
As for buying a blu-ray player................ IMO I'd maybe wait a couple of months to see the new kit hitting the shelfs. After all, more competition will drive down the prices of the existing models even further.
