HD may be a win win in the USA, but it is a lose lose in other countries, like Asian. Besides, I've read the blockbuster is filling their in-store outlets with blu-ray and not hd.
Paramount is just paying back Sony for the money they lost in UMD for the psp.
These are the reason I prefer Bru-ray: large storage capacity, extremely high quality in visual and audio, and longevity from STuDIP a** scratches. Why would I want to spend extra money on a second copy of 300 HD when the first copy was on HD, too. HD is a first generation DVD.

WOW, imagine 350GB-HD in a PS3. Now that's something. Although, I'll buy Hitachi 300GBHD first.

Paramount doesn't care about quality in picture and sound. There more interested on profits. The less cost to produce their movies on any media would be the best course. And because mission impossible 3 didn't make that extra 150-200 million dollars. Why not which from blu-ray to hd-dvd for 18 months.
But, I personally believe Blu-ray DVD's will be here for the next 20-40 years. HD-DVD's shouldn't last more than 10-15 years. That's because company's like TDK (who has just develop a Blu-ray DVD with 200GB data on single side) and RITEK(develop 250GB data disc on a 10 layer Blu-ray DVD) will become the pioneers.
Although, most major fortune 500 companies already uses 4 layer@12cm Blu-ray DVD's(double sided will 100GB) and the 4 layer@8cm mini Blu-ray disc(double sided will 30GB), to record personal data. And once 50-70 years have past ODVD's(organic-DVD, surfaced by protein, 80GB per layer.) will come to lite.
