As always, these release dates are subject to change. I'll
try and amend this post with changes/additions I
notice, but 100% accuracy is not guaranteed.

* Is it really worth buying any HD-DVDs now? Many stores are taking Warner Brothers' decision to abandon HD-DVD and support Blu-Ray as clear evidence Sony's format has won the high-definition "war". It does look like the HD-DVD camp are clutching at straws now; with only a few studios supporting them, they've slashed prices on their HD-DVD players. But, are you willing to buy one, in the blind hope they'll manage to turn their fortunes around?
