Great... Well I hope Universal jumps ship, that would make Paramount look foolish.
Well, so much for that. Blu-Ray is still in the driver's seat however and the news still won't detract me for purchasing a PS3.
unfortunately . . . this will have no impact on the dreadful fact that my shiny new hp laptop came installed with the mundane windows vista . . . ugh!
oh no . . . oh g-o-d no . . . i can't take this anymore . . . where's my xanax!?!?!?
how can this be happened? come on. tell us the true story.
I think the creditability of FT is dropping.
hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahhahahhahahahahahahahascrew em both. I choose Beta, no wait VHS, no...aww the heck with it I'll just spend my money on apple.
If you read the original FT story the only concrete fact it had was that Paramount have a clause giving them the option to drop HD-DVD support if Warner does also. That's it. Paramount have at no point stated they are even considering doing this. The FT story was just sensationalism.
To Skyler... It is not about the cheapest bc the picture is better. There are a lot more things that go into hi-def movies. Sound quality is a major factor that is in favor of Blu-Ray. But since you state that 1080P is the same no matter what, which is true, but ever heard of graphic cards? what is the difference there? why are some so much more expensive. It is called video decoders... The Blu-Ray player can create a better picture because there is more data, there are less issues. Also you view the disc in the native format that it was filmed, therefore leaving any computer modulations out of the equation. But keep thinking that cheap is better, thats what wal-mart does for ya
