It seems the next-gen DVD war is leaning towards Sony more and more as each week goes by, a new ray of hope shines in their direction, a blue ray if you will. Earlier this week one of the world's largest music companies Universal, signed up to pledge support for Blue-ray.Not long after Universal got onboard the BR gravy train, Lion's Gate Home Entertainment said it wants in on some of the action.
Lions Gate Home Entertainment (LGHE), a division of Lions Gate Entertainment (NYSE: LGF; Toronto), announced today that it will release content on the new high definition Blu-ray Disc format. As part of its cooperation with the Blu-ray Disc Association, LGHE will begin releasing new films, TV programming and other titles from the company's vast library in that format when Blu-ray hardware launches in North America.
Leaving you to wonder just what support HD-DVD has and if this DVD war will be a much shorter lived battle than previously expected.Blu-ray wins two more backers, while HD DVD looks doomed
