They had an external add-on for it back when it came out. I don't remember how much it was, but it wasn't cheap. When HD-DVD flopped, they dropped it. It was a half-*** gamble by Microsoft and they never really committed to it. A lot of the success of Blu-ray can be traced back to the PS3.

Don't forget that Wal-Mart endorsed bluray and not HD-DVD. That can be make or break on rival technology like those 2.

Microsoft will really need to pick up bluray with their next gen.
