TVs, VCRs, DVD players, Home Theater systems and more.

True, but Warner's announcement came four months away from its BD exclusivity

Warner also has HD DVDs on retailer shelves, so I don't see how that is much different than Universal. The revenue from those HD DVD sales is negligible compared to what the studios stand to gain from mass-market support of Blu-ray. If Universal intends to go blu, why wait to announce it? What possible benefit would that serve? They're pissing off more people than they're appeasing...and the main thing being appeased is Graffeo's ego. He stuck out his neck by being such an outspoken supporter of HD DVD and he doesn't want to eat crow. But he better learn to like how it tastes.
