Washington, D.C. (October 3, 2007) -- Universal Studios will announce today that next week's HD DVD release of Evan Almighty will include an online shopping feature.
That's according to an article by the Associated Press.

Evan Almighty, a comedy which stars Steve Carell as a modern day Noah, will be the first HD DVD to include an online shopping component.

The disc will include a Web browser that can connect to Universal's online store where viewers can buy products related to the movie such as a rain barrel for $135 and recyclable toilet paper.

HD DVD supporters, led by Microsoft, have said the format's interactive features will distinguish it from rival Blu-ray in the high-def disc war.
