Not a bad list, and certainly a great year for HD DVD considering it was just the beginning. If they could do this many in 2006, then 300+ sounds like an easy target for 2007, considering some studios will have bigger output (like Eagle Rock, Magnolia/HDNet, and Weinstein) than they did last year.

Universal and Warner are clearly leading the pack though in getting HD titles out there. They are probably the strongest studios not just in magnitude of big hits they are putting out, but the diversity of their catalog releases. Gotta be thankful for that.

Not a bad first quarter !! Excellent .......

And that's not counting the titles released outside the US ex:Harry Potter GOF.
