I took the "Blu"-way
I have always been an early adopter.
I had a big Beta collection before I had VHS. But I had VHS earlier than most...
I had hundreds of Laserdiscs before I adopted DVD as a format, but I had DVD almost immediately when it came out. Everything I heard about Blu-ray and HD-DVD pointed to the fact that Blu-ray was technically superior and had higher storage capacity than HD-DVD.
I covered my bases by having both Blu-ray and HD-DVD players and movies, but I support Blu-ray and own many more Blu-ray titles than HD-DVD.
The only formats I skipped were Super-Beta, CED, and Video 2000 ( I still have a super VHS) I have even owned Hi8 equipment.
