Will you get me a drink?

Happy New Year!

I hear people say, "will you get me another drink" and "would you get me another drink"
What is the difference? merely more polite in latter?

Thanks,

Ench

Right. Basically, with "will" the request is more informal, and with "would" the request is more polite.
