The war is pretty much over. With Warner siding with Blu-Ray, most of the major labels are with it (Warner includes the Lord of the Rings and the Harry Potter series, so HD DVD has neither of the biggest from the last decade).
The HD-DVD drive for the Xbox 360 is a rip off, as you can buy an HD-DVD player currently for $149. And in order to get a PS3 to do HDMI, you need to spend $500.
If you really want to go all out, get a dual format player, but you are looking $800 +. Currently the smart money lies on buying a cheap upconverting player for now (Best Buy has an RCA for $40, Futureshop has a Samsung for $70), and picking up a new unit for whatever officially wins in a year or two.
