Depending on the resolution (720p or 1080i), this should have looked 2 to 5 times better than standard DVD, so no surprise there.
As far as HD-DVD vs. BluRay, it's hard to say. Time and time again the "better" technology doesn't become the market leader, think: Apple, BetaMax tapes, etc....
My take is that there are way too many DVD players out there for people to replace with BluRay players. I believe that DVD technology was the quickest tech adoption by consumers, so to replace all of the players isn't likely and would prohibit BluRay to a degree. In addition, HDTV adoption & purchase has been slower than anticipated, so it may be too early to tell.
