Universal studios is going to release Blu-ray/DVD combo, just like Disney, which itself learned the trick from Universal back in the HD DVD days.
However, Universal also plans to discontinue the DVD only versions of the movies that will be release as Combos, which includes movies such as 8 Mile, Dawn of the Dead, Doom, End of Days, Jarhead, Street Fighter: Extreme Edition, The Last Starfighter and The Rundown.
Although these are not exactly top hits, and probably do not sell that much on DVD anyway, the plan to discontinue the DVD version may signal studios wishes to force Blu-ray onto consumers, whether they want it or not. But this will happen only if this limited trial succeeds.
Prices for these combos are expected to be between $15 and $23. The DVD only versions of these films can be had for as little as $7 at the moment.
