Why would anybody buy a player that does not play both HD formats?
Seems silly to even make a player that only plays one format, or am I

Amen!

OTOH, reasons to buy two formats:
1) honey, the BR player is in for service - just pick one of the

Your point? Like I said if you don't care about the new CODECs or future
coming of Deep Color Gamut.
Many do and many want the 1 cable connectivity HDMI provides...
