One of the reasons I believe Paramount did this was because of the movies they have coming out in the up coming year and how big transformers was. Being the fastest to make 1 billion dollars in domestic gross and having up Coming Movie Releases like
Indiana Jones (Memorial Day 2008)
Beowulf (11/6/07)
Star trek (12-25-08)
The heart break kid (Oct 5)
Iron man (2008)
Clover Field (1-18-08)
Hd-dvd better have paid 150 million for exculsive rights because with these movies having gone to both hd dvd or blu-ray, we know who would really win the format war. It would be interesting if people boycotted paramount's movies because the customers decide which format will win.
