Blu Ray Vs. HD-DVD

[Ulises]

"Let's start on the high-definition front. Toshiba is apparently hoping to have at least some HD-DVD players in stores this coming Tuesday (or shortly thereafter) to accompany Warner and Universal's first releases on the format. The studios expect to ship between 7,000 and 10,000 copies of the initial titles due on 4/18, and Toshiba hopes to ship between 10,000 and 15,000 players. The hardware information comes from retailers - we're waiting for official confirmation from Toshiba. You can read more here at Video Business.

Also today, Universal has officially announced two more waves of HD-DVD titles, set for May. May Wave 1 is due on 5/9 (SRP $34.98 each) and will include Assualt on Precinct 13, Cinderella Man and Jarhead. May Wave 2 will follow on 5/23 (SRP $34.98 each) will include The Bourne Supremacy, The Chronicles of Riddick: Unrated Director's Cut, U-571 and Van Helsing. As with the previous releases, they'll all be "HD-30" (single-sided) format discs, and will include English, French and Spanish audio in English Dolby Digital Plus 5.1 Surround, with English SDH and French and Spanish subtitles. Additional extras, if any, are TBA"

A ver cuando anuncian King Kong, al menos me gusta de Universal que ademas de los subtitulos todos sus titulos R1 ya estarán viniendo con DD 5.1 Plus en español.
