Film maker says the decision was made "in response to consumer demand.

Warner Bros on Friday announced that it would exclusively back Sony's Blu-ray high definition format and drop HD DVD releases at the end of May.

Warner claims that it initially supported both HD DVD and Blu-ray to provide consumers with a choice. The company now believes, however, that the move led to consumer confusion.

"The window of opportunity for high-definition DVD could be missed if format confusion continues to linger," the company said in a statement. "We believe that exclusively distributing in Blu-ray will further the potential for mass market success and ultimately benefit retailers, producers, and most importantly, consumers."

The decision slightly increases the value proposition of the PlayStation 3, which of course supports playback of Blu-ray movies in addition to games.

As it currently among the big five movie studios, Sony, Disney, and Warner now back Blu-ray, while Universal and Paramount back HD DVD.
not sure what to make of this. But i guess PS3 Owners don't have to worry about buying a DVD player. Buying a PS3 doesn't sound too bad right now.
