It must be an April Fools post because there is no link to prove it.

But if it IS true, please let me know. Thanks.

Fox to abandon BD+ and join hands with SlySoft to develop BD- to enable easy ripping of Blu-rays by simply using the copy command in DOS/WINDOWS and cp command in UNIX.

Nothing to do with Blu, but got a laugh out of it. Gmail can now set custom time for delivery. In fact, you can even have it sent anywhere as early as April 2004. (gmail.com)
