Meh. Some interviews I've seen say the opposite, that they included it because of the data capacity. The fact that it also promotes it is a good marketing move.

As a developer, I would definitely prefer the higher capacity and data transfer speeds of the Blu-ray format. I haven't seen anything unique from the HD-DVD specs that would make me lean towards that one instead.
