How long before HDDVD withers on the vine now that another big studio has gone Blu-ray exclusive?

Question

Warner Brothers announced they're dropping the format to go strictly with Blu-ray.

Answer 1

The war is over.  Blu-ray won.  The next few weeks will determine HD-DVD's fate.  No one wants to be left "holding the bag".  The HD-DVD camp has already decided to cancel their press conference at this years Consumer Electronics Show because of Warner Bros. announcement, yesterday.

Answer 2

blu-ray is the winner , hd-dvd just don't know it yet , soon universla pictures and paramount will joing the blue-train

Answer 3

Well at first I was on the HD DVD bandwagon because initially they had better video encoding. But since Blu-ray no longer uses MPEG-2 and instead uses AVC and VC-1 codecs the picture quality is now matching HD DVD so now it's only a matter of time before either the other remaining studios, Universal and Paramount either jump ship or are forced to do so when HD DVD goes the way of the BETA.
