    Warner to join Paramount in going HD DVD only?

    Boy, this whole thing is just getting messy. Paramount goes exclusive and Nickerson, pro HD-DVD guy at neutral Warner, suddenly wants to pursue other interests. I believe Nickerson prefers neutrality because he sees the ability right now to make money from both sides even though he personally...

    Blog: HD DVD: Fight or Quit (Preferably Quit)

    M$ is the villain because I believe they have an alterior motive for backing HD-DVD. Like I said before, I believe they don't want either format to take hold. They want the "war" to continue. This, of course, is only my opinion; but one held by more than me. Patronizing me now. I thought...

    Blog: HD DVD: Fight or Quit (Preferably Quit)

    So What? Do you think this format war continues for long if Universal goes neutral? Of course money is changing hands all around for favors. If fortunes were reversed, I would say the same thing about BD and would probably have an HD-DVD player in my house instead of a PS3. Universal is...

    Blog: HD DVD: Fight or Quit (Preferably Quit)

    I just watched the Joe Kane video and his statement you quoted above was all based on his false belief that Sony and BD would only use MPEG-2 as their codec and thus would use an inferior codec to AVC or VC-1 and then must just be jumping into the market to prey on the unsuspecting. As we all...

    Blog: HD DVD: Fight or Quit (Preferably Quit)

    It's ALL about greed. Universal and its parent must be banking on something else (HD-VOD) because they are losing potential sells by not being format neutral. Whatever they are banking on must be big. As I have read here and other places, I also believe that M$ is covering Universal's losses...

    Blog: HD DVD: Fight or Quit (Preferably Quit)

    Has everyone read the HiHD article about an interview with Universal's Craig Kornblau and The Digital Bits piece about Universal's executive vp of marketing Ken Graffeo's comments. This war is over the minute Universal goes neutral. Kornblau and Graffeo both know that. I would be interested...

    Blog: HD DVD: Fight or Quit (Preferably Quit)

    I actually bought the PS3 as a BD player as its primary use and gaming system and internet browser as a secondary use. It has so many features, it is the most cost effective BD player out there. Another great thing about it is it can only get better with frequent firmware updates. Even if you...

    Blog: HD DVD: Fight or Quit (Preferably Quit)

    I believe Universal will also go neutral by the end of 2008 when they decide to read the writing on the wall. You will then hear the deathknell for HD-DVD.
