I apologize to all for the lack of updated recently. I have been going through some personal problems along with working a lot. I will have the list updated within the next few days.

I will be updating the list in the next few days. I do not own a Blu Ray player and have no plans to own one. If someone else wants to write the BR stuff I can add it to the list.

Sony and the other BD studios are pulling their Superbit crap all over again.

Wasn't the "How wrong can you be?" clip not featured on the SD release of Superman Returns? I have both and only found that clip on the HD DVD, not on the SD 2 disc set.

Wasn't there an issue with the 12 Monkeys commentary dropping off at the very end? I should probably know since I listened to the commentary.
If so, was this fixed in the HD DVD release?

Do I start a new list, or is there a way for me to edit this thread?

Sorry for taking so long to reply. Just copy the list from the main page of the thread. Make your own thread and I will delete this one.

Anyone still working on this? I have both HD formats and keep wondering which format to get (based on quality and extras) and whether I need to keep the SD for extras that HD formats do not have. I've been unable to find a singular site that lists this kind of information in a quick and easy to read manner. I've even thought of running a wiki page that anyone can update with new information.

Hi everyone,
I decided to start a wiki page for this type of comparison thing. I was just going to make an excel sheet for myself, but I figure this can be beneficial to everyone as well, and helpful to have everyone else's contribution to it. I've only entered a few entries when I have time at work, most of which I got from the first post on this thread. I put it on my personal webhost for now. If it's popular I may move it to its own domain, and I've thought of even including video game comparison across different platforms.
It's located at http://www.vism.net/hdcompare
Let me know what you guys think.

Back in January I was sick of my super glitchy A1 so I unhooked it and got ready to unload it on ebay. I pretty much forgot about it immediately afterwards. Fast forward to June, Toshiba sent me the 2.2 update disc in the mail. I decided to hook the player up again just for the hell of it. What a difference the update made. I could actually watch an entire movie without the thing locking up. Since then I have bought a ton more HD-DVDs and even purchased a PS3 so I could get some Blu goodness. I wanted to start up the list again and reupdate it but I thought it was too far gone.
I think that the wiki is a great idea.
