Despite deciding I wouldn't buy Blu Ray, because it was way too
expensive, now the prices are falling I've bought into both formats.

Got the add on for my 360 and a Samsung Blu Ray player (nothing against
Sony particularly it's just the Samsung was a whole lot cheaper). I can
honestly say to my eyes, there's nothing to chose between the two
formats, both look equally good. Fortunately, I've now covered both
bases for less than I paid for my first DVD player back in '98.
