Re: Universal menus: they may have ported all their animations and the general look and feel, but there are some strong differences to how the menus functioned on HD-DVD. They animated smoothly on top of the video itself on HD-DVD and in Java they fake that on some movies and stopped trying altogether after a few years. (On some players it's very much the opposite of smooth, it has very clear hiccups and clipping artifacts.) Plus the loss of things like picture-in-picture special features that HD-DVD supported but Blu-Ray never did.
