we will see, we will also see what kind awful copy protection comes with it. I'm hoping to skip both of them and go to holographic storage. :)

Yeah Holographic storage is pretty awesome. And there's plenty of reasons to skip both the HD-DVD and Blu-Ray formats. Namely the oppressive copy protection (AKA D.R.M.) that's built into them.

Bluraysucks.com makes a good listing of the D.R.M. that's built into them. Of course wikipeda also has entries on both Blu-ray and HD-DVD.

All that said, it would be a shame if the companies working on Holo-format decide to treat their customers like thieves and include DRM specs into the formal format.
