This is the way I look at it. The BDA wants to win this war, as does Warner. If you're going to choose a format, go with Blu-Ray, because it's the only way one format will win.

If you go with HD DVD, you're just giving Toshiba more marketshare, and thus power, enabling them to stay in the game longer and create this dual format world they're looking for, thus forcing you two buy a second player later on, whether it's a Blu-Ray player to compliment your HD DVD player, or a dual-format player to replace it.

how about all studio just drop blu ray support and go to the HD DVD side and save us consumers $200 on the player.  I dont really give a crap about 7.1 sound support, I dont have an expensive 7.1 setup to hear the difference.  I havent jump on any format yet, but I'm more happy with toshiba's pricing,  show its thinking on the consumer side of the budget.  While Sony been forcing down their own proprietary expensive shit down our throat the pass decade, remember the mini disc player, keep changing their portable memory module on their next new device??? why cant they just use cheaper SD memory if they care so much about their consumers walleet??.
