| lvader said: Warner has a lot riding on HD DVD, they won't drop it unless they think it can't succeed. Blu Ray continue to have very poor attach rates and struggles to out sell HD DVD 2-1 despite a huge hardware advantage. If Warner does go exclusive my bet would be on them going HD DVD exclusive. |
Warner's primary goal is to end the war. Going HD DVD exclusive would not end the war in any sort of timely fashion, if it ended it at all, as Blu-Ray would still have 4 exclusive studios, and the ps3 would still sell like usual. If they went Blu, Blu-Ray would have 5 exclusive studios compared to just 2 for HD DVD, and the choice from a consumer stand point would be obvious. The fear of buying into the wrong format would be removed, allowing HDM to take off.
