| | (Post a comment) » Warner Bros. Being Courted To Go HD-DVD Exclusive?This LA Times story reports that movie studio Warner Bros. is the latest that is being courted by the HD-DVD camp to go exclusive to that next-gen high def disk format. The HD-DVD's main cheerleader Toshiba is said to have given Warner Bros. "a lucrative offer" to go HD-DVD exclusive which would put movies like the Harry Potter series under the HD-DVD banner. The story is based on unnamed sources. Recently Paramount and its sister studio Dreamworks Animation went HD-DVD thanks in part to a $150 million incentive offer. | Previous news article | Back to main news | Next news article  |

| » My HD movie collection... ..is pretty much split down the middle with roughly 10 per medium.
(I own well over 400 DVDs and 50-60 box sets, but HD movies need to come down in price more before I spend any serious money on them. I purchased most of mine for an average price of $12 anyway)
I hope this ends soon, or that the dual players come down to a respectable level (but alas it won't happen anytime soon that's for sure).
Then there is the talk of the third new medium, not to mention the OTHER medium that was supposed to be able to accommodate both HD-DVD and Blu-Ray...
Maybe one day we'll see something finalized..that would definitely be nice.
As far as which I prefer, HD-DVD seems to be the one with less DRM, is less expensive to produce and has the least expensive players at the moment.
