Netflix Blu-Ray Exclusive - Blu-ray Forum

whoisquilty · 02-11-2008, 07:20 PM

Just received this from Netflix:

You're receiving this email because you have asked to receive high-definition movies in the HD DVD format. As you may have heard, most of the major movie studios have recently decided to release their high-definition movies exclusively in the Blu-ray format. In order to provide the best selection of high-definition titles for our members, we have decided to go exclusively with Blu-ray as well.

While we will continue to make our current selection of HD DVD titles available to you for the next several months, we will not be adding additional HD DVD titles or reordering replacements.

Toward the end of February, HD DVDs in your Saved Queue will automatically be changed to standard definition DVDs. Then toward the end of this year, all HD DVDs in your Queue will be changed to standard definition DVDs. Don't worry, we will contact you before this happens.

You can click here to change your format preferences.

We're sorry for any inconvenience. If you have any questions or need further assistance, please call us at 1 (888) 638-3549.

I just got the same e-mail! It's a big win for Blu-ray, with Reed Hastings being so tied to Microsoft and all.

Hey - I haven't seen that email posted anywhere on this board. Looks pretty official rather than the conjecture that's been posted earlier.

So, don't "late to the party" me.
