My first player was a panasonic BD-50 in august of 2008. My first movie was Batman Begins ltd edition in july of last year. I've purchased 79 more bluray's since...

Last May I got myself a PS3 with the idea of just using it to watch BD, but since then have bought a few games for it. My first movie though was Short Circuit, since it was only $13.99. After that I got both National Treasures movies, which look great. My collection has grown since then.

I got my first BD player about a year and a half ago. It was a Samsung BD1400 which I later swapped for a (region free) Panasonic BD30, since the Samsung never worked properly even after several firmware upgrades.

My first BD title was Bridge to Terabithia. By now I have a bit over a hundred BD titles.

I bought my PS3 last march and I use it only for Blu-Rays (for Games I prefer the XBox 360 because of the better controller and better online integration).
The first Blu-Ray was Cars, the second was Rataouille. One year later I have 47 Blu-Rays and some pre-orders.

I got both hi-def formats at the same time.

My first player was the TOL LG-combo player but I didn't like it so I quickly got my money back and upgraded.

First HD-DVD Player: Toshiba HD-A35
First HD-DVD disc: Adventures of Robin Hood, Apollo 13, and The Searchers

First BluRay Player: Pioneer Elite BDP-95FD
First BluRay disc: Dinosaur and Total Recall


From the start I liked the BluRay better but I have to admit the HD-DVD discs loaded faster, had more"fun stuff" extras and better menus. Now that HD is gone, the BluRay folks finally got busy and their menus are on par with what HD began with.

Current totals:
45 HD-DVD
391 BluRay

My first player was a PS3 bought in June of 2008

My first blu-rays were Blade Runner: 5-Disc Complete Collector's Edition and Hostel: Director's Cut

I waited until the "war" ended and bought my first BDs on March 1, 2008.  I have a Panasonic BD-30 and I've got a Sony drive in my PC.

My first blu-ray player : PS3
My first Blu's : Night at the museum, Invincible, 50 First Dates (got these free with the HDTV I bought at the same time as the PS3). These are the only 3 so far. Have been renting most of them since.
