Yea, that's what I'm saying, it would be awesome if Warners saw BD outsell, or even have sales comparable to HD-DVD, even w/out the features. It would show that HD movies are what the market wants.

From HDD: In the past, however, with such IME-enhanced titles as 'The Matrix Trilogy' and "Batman Begins,' Warner has chosen to simply withhold their release releasing a Blu-ray version until a future . Their decision to simply downgrade the Blu-ray for 'Blood Diamond,' however, is sure to generate controversy.

Maybe Warners is testing the waters of BD, seeing if they can sell those other movies mentioned w/out IME.
