Now, I'm sure some resourceful person will rip the HD DVD and remaster it for burning onto BD-R/RE, and that will end up distributed via the internet... but that wouldn't be legal so I would never condone that.

I do condone it!

Paramount deserves to have their movies ripped and put onto BD-R's

Well... all their post-exclusive stuff will be in my library. Even if I don't like it. Rememeber, like mysig says. There is no HD DVD exclusivity.

Piracy works when there is a niche. Shutting down a couple of million people from having access from your product when there is no technological barrier is music to a pirate's ears.
