Bill Hunt's Two Cents posts about Paramount, Warner, etc.

If HD-DVD does NOT get Warner exclusively I think the advantage will still be largely Blu unless Microsoft and Toshiba push them to release more movies. They've only put out a little over 30 different hi-def movies since this war started, correct? It'll sting not being able to get T-Formers and Shrek cubed but it could be worse.

If HD-DVD gets Warner then Blu-ray is going to sink this holiday season. Harry Potter will sell an s-load of standalone HD-DVD players.

Anyhoo, I still don't think M$ is going to put up any more money this year. They pi$$ed away alot of money already. $1 billion on the XBox repair program. $150 million on Paramount. I figure they would have to offer Warner at least double what they paid Paramount. That's alot of money to be flushing down the toilet and it's a lot of explaining to do to stockholders.
