Sky Plus vs HD DVD recorder

[Zippee]

I'm looking to upgrade to Sky+ but as I also need a new DVD player would I be better off instead spending my money on a DVD HD recorder? If so can anyone recommend one - especially blu-ray compatible?
Or would I be better off going for the Sky+ and just getting a normal blue-ray HiDef DVD player?

Not fussed about having the best around - just want decent affordable (& user friendly) quality.

you need to consider if you wnat to be able to record straight from the SKY EPG as standalone DVD recorders wont let you do that - as far as i know.

No HD DVD recorder on the market at present. You could capture HD on your PC then put it on a Blu-ray but I doubt if this would be of interest to you.
