HD DVD advertising - Blu-ray Forum

Xerious · 02-09-2008, 02:37 PM

Just trolling around their site (the look and sound of rotten putang) and i noticed about 75% of their previews included Warner titles (Batman Begins, HP, 300, just to name a few). They also still have listed Warner, HBO, and New Line as supporters when we all know otherwise. I do realize that WB will officially go Blu after May so I wonder what they will do after that? Especially after they won't be pressing any more HD DUDs after the fact... but that shouldn't matter right... no one's gonna be buying the surplus anyway!

By the looks of things, the HD-DVD camp will keep advertising in order to switch peoples' minds.

They will advertise till the last second to hook in more consumers who are not informed. Also, look in the history of HD DVD for false advertisement... Can anyone say Spielberg? Twice?

you mean "putain"?

I can not see they will remove warner from the list. but still wonder why HBO and new line still listed. Warner is HD DVD patent holder from what I heard. though they stopped releasing HD DVD, I heard they will still receive royalty for it

hmm, I saw the thread title and thought it was a perfect oxymoron.
