Last week saw just one high-definition DVD released to both HD-DVD formats: a low budget movie about a small town coming together to make a porn flick. With Joe Pantoliano as the village idiot and Ted Danson as town homo, "The Amatuers" was the only film to come-out on both Blu-ray disk and Hi-Def format.
According to EngadgetHD's weekly headcount, Sony BluRay increased their lead in releases of HD discs to 444 versus 386 movies. The week saw two Blu-ray DVD releases from Topics and Buena Vista, and one each from Sony and Warner.
The names of the blue-ray titles are unimportant when compared to HD's lone offering. Toshiba's fifteen gigabytes of fame (thank you, Andy Warhol) came to an end with the high definition release of "Girls Gone Wild: Baby Bash - Live and Uncensored!"
So what if there's no longer a choice in HD formats -- if you're stuck with an obsolete player, you can still choose this week between a new porno title and GGW.
