    Warner has announced support for BluRay and HD-DVD
    Well, its looking worse for HD-DVD everyday. Warner has now announced support for both formats. I guess everyone now believes that HD DVD is not the only way to go. Sony may pull this one off.

    This is going to get ugly(ier). I read that Blu-Ray is guaranteeing a release date, but what is that date?

    I am willing to bet that you will see only half of those titles upon release. I think HD DVD has completely lost its momentum. Now that all the movie studio's but one has announce that it will support both formats, there really is no advantage to supporting HD DVD with its maximum storage capacity less than half of Bluray's.
