Warner Bros. becomes the latest in a string of signings with Apple for it’s iTunes movie rental service. The studios now participating are Warner Bros., Lions Gate, Paramount, Disney, and 20th Century FOX, the original signer.

The Financial Times reported Tuesday that Paramount is poised to drop HD-DVD support. This deals a deathblow to HD-DVD and pretty much assures Blu-Ray has Hi-Definition DVD’s future. However, Paramount denies this article, saying that it will continue to stick with HD-DVD.
