While I still recommend against investing in HD-DVD or Blu-Ray, the two competing formats for the next generation of home video, Microsoft’s upcoming add-on player is so shockingly good and reasonably priced that it should be considered a sane option for the insane HD-DVD market.

Not due in stores until mid-November, I had a chance yesterday to visit with Microsoft Canada and get a very brief look at the add-on player and watch parts of a movie with it on a Samsung 47” HD LCD television.

It’s an accessory for the Xbox 360, meaning that it requires the video game system in order to work. You place the small, white-and-grey box next to your Xbox 360 and connect the two together using a USB cable. When you turn on your television and access the game system’s menu, you’ll see two drives listed – the regular DVD drive in the game system, and the HD-DVD drive in the add-on player.
