Rumors say that Warner Bros. are close to making a similar move to what Paramount did recently: HD DVD only.

In these HD tense news days, everything gets interpreted and guessed upon. So what does it mean when Steve Nickerson leaves Warner Bros.

Steve Nickerson was VP of worldwide high-definition at Warner Bros. and a strong supporter of the studio’s neutral stance regarding HD DVD and Blu-ray.

Is his decision a sign of change? Rumors say that Warner Bros. are close to making a similar move to what Paramount did recently: HD DVD only.

However, the studio says that is pure speculation at the moment. "This is not about a change in strategy. This is completely his call, and he will be missed. He is smart and a workhorse," said a WB Spokesman according to Video Business.
