What is better Blu-ray or HD?

Bluray and HD DVD are the two trade names for high definition discs and players. Bluray is by far the better choice for the simple reason that HD DVD was withdrawn in 2009. Bluray had won the HD format war so HD DVD quietly left the stores. There are a number of HD DVD discs around as well as the players. As the two systems are in-compatible, don't trash your HD DVD player just yet. It will still do a do job of playing the HD DVD discs you still have.

Is blu ray better than other DVD players?

BluRay is the name of a high definition DVD player, developed by Sony. The alternative is HDDVD released by Toshiba at around the same time. In terms of image quality, there is little to choose between them but it is commercial considerations that separate them. BluRay has captured the majority of the market and most of the large distribution companies have opted to support BluRay rather than HD DVD. The battle between the two formats looks to have been won by BluRay and Toshiba are reluctantly admitting that HD DVD will give way to Sony's product. While HD DVD is not quite dead yet, opinions within the trade suggest that HD DVD will not be around for a great deal longer. Both formats will play standard definition DVDs so they will replace existing DVD players.
