Specifically, all I know is that Blu-ray was created by Sony and one of those disks can carry more information than a HD-DVD disk. More generally, the studios have been split on which format they support: some release on both, but some release only on one format or the other. It's been likened to the Betamax/VHS war - which Sony lost last time but it seems like they might be winning this time. Universal released BSG S1 only on HD-DVD, so I'm hoping they see the light and release it on my new format because it would be very pretty in high-def. *crosses fingers* (and as we know, I am all about the pretty... *g*)
