Dual Format DVD for Hi-Def Content

With the introduction of Blu-ray dics by Sony, the means to deliver high-definition content became more like a war. Some people support Blu-ray and others the HD DVD. Major studios like Warner Bros, Paramount and Universal studios along with others were caught in this war to find which one is the best.

Warner and Paramount are releasing movies in both the formats, while Goldwyn-Mayer, 20th Century Fox, Walt Disney Pictures, and creator Sony are exclusively releasing DVDs in Blu-ray, while Universal Studios is distributing only in HD DVD format.

But Warner Bros are planning to release a dual format DVD which can play in both HD DVD player and Blu-ray player. This gives a wider choice for the customers for sure, but will it trigger some more competition or will it cool down the fight? We need to wait and watch for this.
