Aren't these the same studios that supported DIVX for many of the same reasons?

Security has been cracked on DVDs for some time now-yet I don't see them stopping production. And as stated before, 1/2 of their discs are BD-25s. They just won't be able to use MPEG-2. No loss there.
The truth is, regardless of what side the studios are on now, they will change if its in their best interests. Some will take longer. I think Disney was the last to adopt DVD-and I believe they were VHS exclusive for quite a while.
