While HD DVD and Blu-ray have both lost key supporters recently, Microsoft's Xbox Live Marketplace seems to just keep adding new content providers, this time bringing MGM and Disney-ABC Television Group to the fold. Conspicuous in that bothare exclusive Blu-ray supporters, Xbox 360 owners will -- later this month -- have access to ABC hits like Lost, Grey's Anatomy and Desperate Housewives in HD the day after they air. So far, MGM's announced just classic and catalog flicks like the Rocky series and The Usual Suspects, with "most" available in HD. Still looking for a Blu-ray add-on or built in HD DVD?
"Still looking for a Blu-ray add-on or built in HD DVD?"
Yes.
If anyone thinks digital content will replace physical media - they are stupid - and that means you Microsoft.
I love waiting hours to download a movie that I can only watch for 24 hours.
This just in SONY Picture Studios went HD DVD exclusive.
Really?
dammit peter i'm gonna give you the benefit of the doubt on that "really?" and pretend you're just being silly
You're all nuts.
"While HD DVD and Blu-ray have both lost key supporters recently" what the hell does this mean? What key supporters did Blu-Ray lose? If anything, they gained full support from WB. No worries about Lost though. I already have it on Blu-Ray, so I'm set.
Paramount and DreamWorks
That was a long time ago. It really didn't matter much because they were neutral and we saw, didn't change a thing. The one that mattered, and ended up deciding the whole thing, was Warner. Warner going Blu exclusive threw a wrench at Toshiba's plans.
At this rate, pretty soon the only movie/TV studio NOT supporting Xbox Live will be Sony, and, well, FUCK SONY.
