The Future Is Blu

Paramount has stated that they'll be going back to Blu-ray soon, although they're expected to honor the HD DVD releases they've already announced. Likewise, Universal (who we thought would be last, but weren't) announced their intention to go Blu-ray earlier in the week.

Warner Bros., which was already planning to go Blu-ray exclusive in June, announced that they are sticking with their current plans and will still release HD DVD titles up until that date. The most likely reason for this is beacuse those HD DVD titles are probably already pressed and sitting in the studio warehouses, so they might as well release them.

With all the major Hollywood studios in the Blu-ray camp by this summer, everyone will finally be able to put this format war behind us and concentrate on making Blu-ray the best it can be for the home consumer.
