Relax, there won't be a format war.

Forget all of those VHS / Beta comparisons that you've been hearing about. Videotape players were mechanical which made dual format players impossible.

An abundance of HD-DVD / Blu-Ray players are just around the corner. If not made available conventionally, they will be on the grey market.

It'll be more similar to DVD+R vs DVD-R, than VHS vs Beta.
