its pretty obvious that toshiba knew the end was near. hence the cheap hd players before warners statement. they probably asked warner if they could at least have a head start so they can gain more profit. lol i have 6 friends that bought the player and all six are returning them at best buy and getting a ps3. and about the downloads who wats to put 20 gig of a movie onto a hardrive…. downloads now are meg4 crappy quality plus the studios would take years to decide… just look at how long they decided for a simple disc lol…. dont be cheap whores… and get a ps3……
apple is going to support blu ray in their new computers anyway and with blu ray live its like the downloads… so yea i repeat… get a ps3… and ur good to go

if warner, sony and apple joined forces they would rule the world….

Jeez. It’s OVER. Sony won. Let it go. Forget what happens next, Warner’s decision to go Blu was the real blow in this war. Paramount and Universal will simply decide how long HD-DVD’s death is. It’s just a matter of when, not if.

@ John Seymore

New Line, HBO and Warner are 3 companys. The fact they are all owned by one company doesnt change that.

Good grief… just give it up and allow a winning format to build into the consumer mainstream before digital downloads threaten your physical medium profits any further!

It seriously undermines any pundits credibility when they pretend that New Line / HBO / Warner were three studios that migrated at once.

THEY’RE THE SAME COMPANY.

Warner gave the initial “oh, they aren’t bound by our decision” nonsense because they’d been paid handsomely by Sony to maximize the impact of their announcement.
