Interesting article:
Blu-ray victory means royalties, royalties, royalties

This article has a few interesting tidbits about royalties in the DVD and CD industry and how it will apply now to Blu-Ray. Also about China's dislike for paying DVD royalties and their desire to have their own Chinese DVD and CD formats.

I was surprised to read that Sony owns no more than 30% of the intellectual property of Blu-Ray. According to the article:

"Sony doesn't even have 30 percent of the IP," Doherty said. "The top four intellectual property holders are likely Sony, Panasonic, Pioneer, and Warner."
 

Paramount annoucement

What month will Warner release it's last HD DVD?
