Welcome

This site is a source of all official and rumored, existing and upcoming release dates for high definition video releases.

I usually update the release schedules daily, even if this front page isn't updated. There is intentional focus on international releases not yet available in the USA from an English speaking perspective, including some region code information. Alongside Blu-ray, the dominant hidef consumer standard, a list of all the HD DVD and D-Theater releases will be kept as an archival record. In the future, if there is an international standard for hidef download releases, they will also be included.

Make sure to let me know of any corrections, omissions, new information or suggestions on how these lists can be improved. Industry insider information is welcome and anonymity ensured.

Navigate the lists using the links on the left.

And above all enjoy your high definition viewing!

Site News:
OK a few question to you about changes to the site and Twitter feed. Firstly the site:

*Should we keep the Australia section? Initially I thought that Australia would be the third power of Blu-ray releases like it is with DVD. However with the region situation it appears that there is no third place after USA and Europe. So shall we do away with Australia?

*Should we keep covering music and documentary releases? My prime interest is in cinema and TV, so I wouldnt miss these genres, but what are your prime interests?

*What should the twitter feed predominantly cover? - general news, releases on the day they are released, upcoming release announcements, or upcoming pre-order announcements?

Email me your feedback at the above email address, and keep enjoying the hidef goodness.
