As Bill Hunt notes on Digital Bits.com, expect Fox and MGM to come out
swinging (now that they've got the security coding they were waiting for)--

It's seen as a bribe--what with Dreamworks' recent financial troubles
and rumblings of mutiny--but the fact that Microsoft had to pay
"promotional considerations" to get Paramount to switch to HD isn't
going to help their "Blu Anti-Trust" legal campaign any...
