This morning, Netflix, the nation's leading
online DVD rental service, announced they intend to offer HD-DVD discs
to their customers beginning in March. The company also plays to support
the upcoming Blu-Ray format when it is expected to launch sometime later
in 2006.The Netflix announcement is good news for early adopters of either format. Both HD-DVD and Blu-Ray discs are expected to sell at a premium at launch, so a strong rental option will no doubt be a boon for those who want to enjoy their hot new high-def players but not have to pay $40 to own 'Mission: Impossible 2.'
