It appears Cyberlink has finally heard the news that Blu-ray has won the HD format wars. In response, the company has announced that its latest movie playback software, PowerDVD Ultra, will now support Blu-ray, including the latest BD-Live Profile 2.0. BD-Live allows for additional downloadable content for Blu-ray discs, including interactive games, movie trailers, ringtones, and more.

For $99.95, PowerDVD Ultra will not only play HD movies on your computer, but will also feature HD audio (Dolby Digital/TrueHD and DTS-HD), HDMI input support, and DivX, MPEG-2, MPEG-4 (H.264), WMV-HD, and AVCHD playback. Interestingly, Cyberlink didn’t stop there and decided to add a little social network feature by including Movie Remix and MoovieLive. Movie Remix allows you to make your own version of movies and share them online. You can re-order movie scenes, add subtitles, add voice commentary, and overlay animated graphics. MoovieLive lets users connect to MoovieLive.com to download or upload remixes, write/read movie reviews, and check movie stats.
