The desperation of Toshiba to force HD-DVD on users...
...with all the marketing hype and simply false statistical data and claims. 74% of HDTV disc players in Europe they claimed.. yeah, sure.. then how comes that Blu-Ray discs sell rates account for 80%+ of the market worldwide and well above 60% in Europe as well ?!
They even didn't count the PS3 as a HD-DVD player, they kept promoting the fact that consoles are just for games and now they want Microsoft to put the HD-DVD inside the XBox360 and turn it into a full HD-DVD player with media box like features and even a PVR...?!
Yeah, this really makes sense.. of desperation.
The only hope is that the majority of people won't get fooled into buying an inferior product and an inferior optical disc format by all of this.
The PS3 is the best product, now I can only hope that Sony starts putting some serious audio/video codecs/containers support in upcoming new Firmware 2.x ...
