HD Movies: Universal Jumps from HD DVD to Blu-Ray

Universal announced today that they will switch from HD DVD to Blu-ray shortly after Toshiba's official announcement to discontinue manufacturing HD DVD players and recorders.

Per
Craig Kornblau, President, Universal Studios Home Entertainment and Universal Pictures Digital Platforms: "The path for widespread adoption of the next-generation platform has finally become clear."

There has been no official statement made by other HD DVD supporters (e.g., Paramount Pictures) at this time, but we will continue to update our High-Def 101 page with the latest information as it becomes available. With Blu-ray the remaining high-definition disc format, today's announcements have brought a welcome clarity for those waiting to convert to high-definition. --The Amazon.com High-Def Team
