Only thing is that 125 sounds a bit high , because there are regular promotions where they give away like 5 free movies. You should get a new one for 179 and get the free movies.
There is a cosiderable difference between standard DVD's and HD DVD's esp when you start getting toward the 50" video screen size.
HD DVD is also great through xbox live because you get all the firmware updates.
In a year or so I hope to get a stand alone combo drive and play some Blu Ray movies, but for now this is plenty good and HD DVD does have a pretty good selection of movies to choose from.

I have had some problems with the 360 hd dvd player, on most hd dvd's the picture doesn't run fluid, it kind of stops now and then, especially on long camera pan's, i have a samsung le32r81... it bothered me so much i've sold it. I now am going to buy a Tosh EP30
