I'm starting to get tired of this already! Blu-ray or hd-dvd? Before Christmas or after Christmas? While it would be nice to see Sony and Toshiba come to some sort of agreement, am I the only person that would like to see Toshiba as the last man standing? Sony does everything in a proprietary manner! I mean, look at their MP3 players...They tweak their units with a particular codec that makes it difficult for the end user to use the thing! From what I understand, their Playstation 3 hs been getting lotsa flack from the developers because once again, Sony has made things difficult! When it's all said and done, what's not to like about HD-DVD:
1. Disc capacity has approached Blu-ray levels...
2. Backwards compatible units
3. Discs are easier to manufacture, keeping the end user price lower than Blu-Ray
4. Microsoft and Intel are backing 'em...
At the end of the day, I can't find any reasons why Toshiba shouldn't win this fight!
