Default Black Bars on Universal, Dreamworks and Paramount?

Will you still buy Universal, Dreamworks and Paramount titles if they release them with the Black Bars?

First sign of grain or black bars and I'm boycotting Paramount/Universal and Dreamworks titles completely.

Right. Disney had a recall on pirates. A replacement disk is available due to the fact that they actually cut off people's heads with the black bars.

I will only buy movies featuring OAR. Up with black bars (when required to preserve OAR); down with ignorance.

Obviously it's starting to get a bit boring without HD-DVD to kick around.

I just read on the "other" HD site that there IS nothing to worry about even though Toshiba has dropped DUD and squashed it's only studio support beneath the bus.
