i prefer BD-R becos bigger space mah.BD drive already available mah with Panasonic brand and it cost more that 2k per drive.

blu-ray even the name itself oso cool

of cos tat is not da reason...
i will choose blu-ray since it has more capacity even though it's pricey compared 2 hd-dvd...
but price will drop rite

I'd wait untill a few more year. The price does not reflect the usability of these drives yet, even tho from rumours and sites HD-DVD is the more reliable one.

HD burner gua..bluray disc so mahal wor..keke..
as far as i knoe,Blue ray rom selling abt rm2000-rm2500 rite?tat is last time's pcfair price lo.

Blu-Ray media disc capacities is 25Gb!! ......

and? it's hard to find anything that you want to burn that much at one time. And once that disc is scratched... bye bye 25GB of data

yeah, its a quite dangerous to store the important data

both drive at least over Rm1k now.

That i was mention this 25Gb Blu-Ray Media disc got thier advantage & some more disadvantage too......

actually is over 2K & at the moment I dont think it is affordable for most user.
BTW the disc 1 BR-R cost around rm 100 per disc & that's killing.

Of course its not affordable because its still new to the market. Wait for next few years, sure it will become affordable. Better get external hardisk.

just wait for another year or 2-3years...maybe we can buy 2 types for RM100+ each?

Sony never learn from their mistake, look at the video format wars, the digital camera wars, and the audio format wars, Sony lost all of them.

Only the problem with Sony is that they make good product, but don't know how to sell it.

I predict that BlueRay will go in the way of the Betamax, because everything I see about Sony and BlueRay is nothing but dejavu.

My Vote goes to HD, not because I think I don't like Sony, which I do, but because in the end, everything will be out in HD. Besides, it is usually not often to find cases to burn stuff on DVD of that kind of size.

i vote for HD-DVD drive . blu-ray too expensive .. that price can buy 8800

i voted none. i will wait for another year or 2. but i think i will lean toward HD DVD. from wat i heard, more reliablity n cost wise compare to Blu-ray

I will wait for BD/HD-DVD combo drive.

xbox360 HD DVD drive sold for under rm1k now...

Me too ... It'll be better if one drive could support all the format.
