This could have something to do with Warner's new found love of Blu-Ray:

Apparently, Steve Nickerson, the former Senior Vice President of Market Management at Warner, resigned his position back in August. He was an avid proponent of HD DVD, and was apparently behind Warner's move to support HD DVD exclusively before the war started (though they later went neutral).

The removal of a pro-HD DVD higher up from the Warner hierarchy could easily have swung things in the way of Blu-Ray. It's the only way to explain these pro-BD comments from a studio that was formerly VERY friendly to HD DVD.
