Everybody's reporting now that Warners finally chose a side and that's Blu-Ray. Could this be the end to the format wars? The Consumerist has a nice little summary of the distribution in exclusivity formats:

Blu-Ray:

  • 20th Century Fox
  • Walt Disney
  • Lionsgate
  • Warner Bros
  • Sony
        - MGM/UA
        - Columbia TriStar
  • New Line & Fine Line
HD DVD:
  • Paramount
  • NBC Universal
Doesn't look too good for HD DVD does it? While this doesn't mean an end to HD DVD it certainly does look bleak. I'm just glad to finally see a small light at the end of the tunnel though. If this is indeed it, I do feel bad for all those people that invested in HD DVD. It's still not good enough for me to warrant any purchase of Blu-Ray movies yet as I want a clear cut winner and the death of one format. Maybe tomorrow, we'll see Gates announce a Blu-Ray drive for the 360 or a 360 SKU with a built in Blu-Ray drive. I'm just kidding of course. :) [MORE]
