Universal HD DVD Exclusivity Deal Expired


In what seems like another falling domino for the HD DVD camp, it is being reported that Universal is no longer obligated to support HD DVD exclusively. This following the news that Paramount has a clause in its contract to allow themselves to switch sides if others like Warner were to go Blu.




Update: Universal has denied the rumors of a possibility in dropping HD DVD support in favor of Blu-ray. They also go on to reaffirm their support in the HD DVD format. Although like the Paramount situation, they haven't exactly denied the reports of their HD DVD exclusivity contract ending.
