According to a story on Heise.de, the Paramount Blu-ray titles listed for pre-order on Amazon.co.uk and Amazon.de were a mistake. Amazon has now updated the listings to reflect the discs as being HD DVD releases. We were skeptical about this, since amazon has been known to make mistakes when it comes to HDM pre-order details.

If anyone thought this was a sign of them switching, then they must feel pretty stupid right now. Especially if informed about Amazon’s track record.
Mehar,
I thought that it meant it was a possibility, but I dont at all feel stupid.
Its Paramounts loss not mine.
