Blu Ray and HD-DVD are the two formats fighting the crown of DVD successor. The battle is not won, though as this Softpedia article describes. Both formats have their strong backers, both in manufacturer and movie industry front. However, the issue of how and which DRM system is going to be adopted might be a key issue. As also referred in the article, I cannot help comparing this to the battle of VHS and betamax home video formats. The sad thing is the result might be the same - loss for everybody.
