STORYMARK


Firefly has already been announced for Blu-Ray, probably later this year (I don't think a date has been set). Universal hasn't even started putting out movies on Blu Ray, yet. Their first ones come out the 22nd of this month, and are mainly new releases, or movies tied to some of their summer releases. And though Serenity was available for HD-DVD, Blu Ray uses different encoding structures, so they can't just use the same master. They'll have to go back and re-encode Serenity for Blu Ray.

So, be patient. It'll happen, but it's still a new format, and Universal is only just getting started with it.

...Or , Not ! Seems that this date is not yet firm , and some sites that had reported it as such are now having to back away from their prior statements to that effect...
