Have you preordered your Toshiba HD-DVD player, which is due out this month? If you have, and you want to take advantage of the technology, you'll have to wait a few weeks for HD-DVD movies to actually come out. According to Reuters and the Hollywood Reporter, Warner Home Video has announced that it has officially delayed the release dates of its first HD-DVD titles to April 18, and there will only be three titles available at launch: "Million Dollar Baby," "The Phantom of the Opera," and "The Last Samurai." Warner will then release another 17 titles in the following weeks, including "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory," "Batman Begins," and "The Matrix." The delays are due to technical issues--making sure that, with all of the new technology, there are no problems with the discs. All I can say is, if these are my choices, looks like I can hold off on upgrading from DVD for a while.
