Who cares? Why so much fuss over this "format war"? Format of what? An ancient concept of storing read-only bits glued over a piece of plastic? I don't plan on using CDs or DVDs or any kind of big physical objects to store anything on in the future.
I am on the network, nearly all the time. Plus I have a 4GB flash drive and soon I'll get 32GB one of the same price.
Why would I want a read-only plastic disk for?
But I want one because the quality of Blu-ray (or whatever hi-def format) simply beats the snot out of anything I can get via download. So perhaps that's a subjective thing. I'm not ready to kick my physical media to the curb at this time, though I do wish I could rip the hi-def formats.
Let me know when you find that deal on 32GB flash drives...I'll be right in line behind you for 2 or 3!
