"Sony's paying off Michael Bay to promote Blu Ray"

[Cyorg]

Well, that's what someone at work told me yesterday.
He's a 360 fanboy with the HD DVD add-on, and knows that I have a PS3 and am a Blu Ray supporter. He seemed so sure of himself, and when I asked him to back up his claim, he just said that he was told by a friend, but he knows this has to be true. "Why else would he sabotage his own movie"? I let him know that to me it doesn't seem like he's sabotaging his own movie, but Paramount did, and if anything he's promoting it.
Anyhoo, normally this is a pretty cool guy, but I had to call him out on this.
