Major Movie Studios Sign With Sony

Sony recently announced that the Playstation Network will now deliver HD movies from all six major studios including 20th Century Fox, Paramount Pictures, Sony Pictures Entertainment, Universal Pictures, Walt Disney, and Warner Bros. Combined, the six studios chalk up an intial slate of 19 HD movies that are available to buy or rent. Currently, the movies are only available in the United State, but Sony sys that it has plans to release them in France, Germany, Spain , and the UK as well "soon." What do you guys think this news means for companies like Microsoft who managed to get none of the studios to sign with them? Sony came out on top with the Blu-ray disc format being more popular than the HD-DVD, does this step make Sony more dominant in the entertainment business?
