I don't leak confidential info myself, because I figure "what goes around, comes around", but if I were inclined to do so, I might also post from anonymously from a public place where my IP address could not be traced back to me. So that part of the posting rings true to me.
What motive could Warner have to make such a move? Getting paid off works both ways ;-)
A true BD-Live (aka "Profile 2.0") title for early 2008? Chances are just about nil, because aside from announced but unreleased players from LG and Samsung, there's nothing which even claims to support the spec yet. You can get picture-in-picture with Blu-Ray Profile 1.0 by including a complete 2nd video track, and that's exactly what Pixar apparently is doing with "Cars". This is a no-no because you potentially wind up with 50 gigabyte disks and STILL get lossy audio + video. Much much better to do this properly under Blu-Ray Profile 1.1, I think.
Overall, who knows? Wait until tomorrow like the message says, and see if anything happens, I guess.
Follow Ups:
Guess I got fooled ;-)[edit] Never mind: Times on that board are GMT, so this alleged announcement is still in the future.
Let the suspense build. :)
I'm actually surprised at the extremely large discussion this highly probable hoax is getting. OTOH, the Paramount decision was preceded by largely discounted internet rumors....

I didn't hear any rumors about Paramount before it happened. People in the know kept that very close to their chest. There WAS a rumor, I believe spread by a BD insider, that Weinstein was about to go neutral. Of course, there was the ever present rumor of Universal going neutral. :-)
I stopped listening to rumors spread by Blu-ray folks.

Looking forward to Oldboy and several other key blu-ray titles coming over the next couple months.
