Good luck getting the industry to agree on such a format and successfully bring it to market

The format development and ensuing war between HD DVD and Blu-ray are not something studios, manufacturers and consumers will want to repeat anytime soon. Standardization is very difficult in the industry. The fact is that if Blu-ray fails, the alternative is downloadable/streaming HD that has horrible artifacts and is unlikely to be of much better quality than DVD barring a complete overhaul of the existing copper wire infrastructure.

If you like 1080p, blu-ray is the way to go.
