Query: An awesome player at an awesome price.

This is simply an unbeatable deal. The unit is fully featured and performs impeccably, and for this price, it's hard to believe.HD-DVD has the advantage over Blu-ray simply because it is less-costly to manufacture. Blu-ray may hold a bit more (9hrs vs 8hrs of HD content) but it just doesn't justify the huge cost difference. HD-DVDs are also REGION-FREE! This alone has persuaded me to go HD-DVD instead of Blu-ray since I hate strict format restrictions.
