Question "Universal is going Blu-ray exclusive" post

Who takes the time, to write something like this It's clearly fud to my eyes.

I took it from eproductwars.com

- I work at Universal, I cannot give you my name for obvious reasons, I work in the DVD release deptartment. This is supposed to be kept Top Secret until a week before Black Friday, however I gotta spill the beans. Universal is going to begin releasing movies on Blu-ray, not only that, but they are going to go Blu-ray exclusive. This is going to raise some eyebrows, but Ill tell you why and how it happened. Basically, Universal is in finanical trouble. Fox and Universal were working on the Halo movie together, however this movie is costing a ton of money and Universal couldn't keep up. This movie is all CGI and its very impressive. Universal has had quite a few of financial blunders this year, most notibly Evan Almighty, so to make up for it they sold their rights of the Halo movie to Fox. Microsoft knew this was going to be huge trouble, because Halo would then become a blu-ray exclusive and their belief is if Blu-ray wins, PS3 wins, and Sony knows this and is going to capitalize on it. Sony has basically have paid Universal approx. 1 billion dollars to go Blu only. This way there are no HD DVD exclusive studios, which will end the war will instantly, and it will really hurt 360 add-on sales (they lowered the price to clear out useless inventory), and PS3 will be ensured victory along with digital downloads. Don't kill me I'm just the messanger. 1 billion gets you a lot as Bourne Ultimatum will also be coming Blu-ray way this Xmas season.
