In the format war that consumers have wisely tried to ignore, HD DVD got one thing right: the name. Familiar and easy to spell, it sounds like a simple upgrade for something we already own. Blu-ray, on the other hand, is pretty much better in every other way. It has a larger capacity and a better range of movies, and it's slowly edging out HD DVD in the sales charts. Add to that the PlayStation3, which includes a Blu-ray drive, and things start to look bleak for HD DVD. The upside? It's all a moot point anyway. The real future of entertainment lies not in any form of physical media, but in high-speed downloads and dizzyingly fast data transfers.
