Here's how the market stands right now:

Blu-Ray has been out for some time now, almost 2 years. It has relatively little backing, very few DVDs released in the format.

HD-DVD, which is relatively new, already has a tremendous backing. It will more than likely take over as the industry standard. For one, there are no licensing fees for the technology as there are with Blu-Ray. For another, the quality is slightly better. There is also a fairly big array of titles to choose from already.

If you really need an option right now, go for HD-DVD.

How can they make the quality even better using blue or hd?
Normal DVDs are fine on most television sets. Only with the newer HD sets do you really notice how grainy DVDs actually are. On my parent's 56 inch HD set, there is a HUGE difference between DVD and HD-DVD/Blu-Ray (they have both /sigh).
