Yep, while on HD-DVD MS owned that same codec, PLUS the whole most used implementation of HD-DVD's subsystem for interactive contents (it wasn't the only possible, but it was by far the most used). What's worst for MS is that besides not owning BD's interactive subsistem, BD uses a Java derivative for the task,  and MS really hates Java and its platform independence.

I won't buy a BD device until at least BD writers for PC are cheap, but I SO love how it makes ballmer-boyz rabid!   

I just purchase one, 130$, not too bad.
