Sometimes it's best to wait until one technology wins out over the other. Sony's Blu Ray looks like it will be the technology to survive while Toshiba's HD-DVD looks like it will be the BetaMax this time around. If you've got the disposable income and can afford to eat the cost, then by all means buy both technologies. Sometimes it pays dividends to let others cut their teeth on the latest technologies and let them deal with the headaches while the bugs are worked out. Anyone buy the iPhone or Windows Vista right away?
