got a 360 hd dive and very impressive it is , normal dvds are amazing (lotr or star wars) and hd dvds like serenity or batman are even better, but is a stand alone player a better buy ?

(not worried about value for money)

if you already have the xbox addon then not really unless you find the whole xbox package a bit noisy which i do and opted for the Tosh HD-E1 but should have held on a bit longer for the XE1 for 1080p

i read that LG are going to release a hybrid player for both blue ray and hd... will assume it will be a bit pricey... late this year.... also warner bros are releasing dual layer hddvd, hd on top and blueray on the second layer :)... will still hang on for the out come

I picked up the drive a while ago and the visuals are just amazing. However I've noticed a real lack of good value content.

Watched Superman Returns at the weekend (~?20, even on eBay) - great to look at but a woeful film!!

So it may be worth waiting for some good films for better value. Maybe waiting for the ?9 HD DVD would be an idea !! (Still remember giving Mr Tesco ?199.99 for my Wharfdale ?950? DVD player).
