After announcements were made implying that Blu-Ray has won the next-generation DVD wars, some people are complaining that HD-DVD was superior. Is there anything that can be done on HD-DVD that can't be done or at least can't be done as well on Blu-Ray?

What HD-DVD had that blu-ray didn't for awhile was the ability to have what was called an 'in-movie' experience, where a little icon would pop up (usually in the lower right corner) during the film being viewed, and if you hit the enter button, a little picture in picture would pop up and the audio from the movie would be lowered. Usually featured one of the actors/director/producers describing something that happened during this scene, how they made the scene, ect. ect.

But I believe with a firmware update around last October Blu-ray began supporting this feature as well.

HD-DVD is so crappy compared to Blue Ray. Blue has a no scratch feature so that the DVD can run perfectly. It does suck when your DVD skips dont ya think?
