As far as quality however most people have been satisfied with the quality of HD DVD. Blu-Ray discs are able to deliver an even greater quality at a more expensive price. Blu-Ray discs can up to 50
Gigabytes of storage space. This dwarfs any DVD format to date. The reason for the sudden replacement of DVD is mostly likely due the easy progression of media storage devices. When it comes to technology smaller seems to be better. In fact, this is how the DVDs and Blu-Ray discs were formed. To progress from CDs to DVDs lasers with shorter wavelengths were used. To progress from DVDs to Blu-Ray disc the wavelength used was even shorter. This gives the heads up that Blu-Ray disc will not hold the throne for long. It is only a matter of time that a new and more advanced form of media storage is introduced to the public by simply reducing the wavelength once more.
Blu-ray, also known as Blu-ray Disc (BD), is the name of a next-generation optical disc format jointly developed by the Blu-ray Disc Association (BDA), a group of the world's leading consumer electronics, personal computer and media manufacturers (including Apple, Dell, Hitachi, HP, JVC, LG, Mitsubishi, Panasonic, Pioneer, Philips, Samsung, Sharp, Sony, TDK and Thomson). The format was developed to enable recording, rewriting and playback of high-definition video (HD), as well as storing large amounts of data. The format offers more than five times the storage capacity of traditional DVDs and can hold up to 25GB on a single-layer disc and 50GB on a dual-layer disc. This extra capacity combined with the use of advanced video and audio codecs will offer consumers an unprecedented HD experience.

DVD players often do not have high definition outputs.
BluRay disks can hold a lot more information and as a result can contain high definition (HD) video.
