Default What does Universal gain by staying HD-DVD only?
I just can't think of any *financial* plus side for Universal to stay HD-DVD only as opposed to start releasing in Blu-Ray. Only thing comes to my mind is initial investment, but as far as I know disc manufacturing is done externally, the video/audio format is (essentially) the same, so what's the reason? With Blu-Ray clearly ahead (or at least side-by-side) they can only gain by switching. Best case for them is that both formats will co-exist and that will not get them any financial advantage (as opposed to switching).
Am I missing something here? Or are we talking about personal opinions applied at the top levels of the company instead of logical reasoning?
