For me the future isn't HD Download.
How much do you spend on your Xbox Live subscription? How much does it cost to download a movie to your Xbox? What happens to your movies if your HD fries?
I'd much rather walk the two blocks to my local Block Buster, rent the blu-ray disc, and not have to worry about paying a subscription fee, worrying about tying up my DSL while the movie downloads, or worry about what would happen to the couple of blu-ray discs I do own if my PS3's hard drive were to fail.
The PS3 costs more out of the gate, but I'll probably save the difference over the course of a year or two just by the virtue of not needing to pay for Xbox Live.
