This has already been debunked by Warner, and comes from an HD-DVD website, but eitherway, who gives a

How is it any different than Paramount accepting a bribe? A bribe is a bribe & $$$ amounts matter little when comparing Paramount to Warner.  The biggest difference is Paramount chose to be anti-consumer.

I'm just glad Warner made a decision between formats. I finally feel it's safe to go 100% blu-ray and to buy another player for downstairs. The important thing is that the consumers can buy with confidence now instead of having worry and confusion about buying a format that might fail like Laser Disc or Betamax.

I applaud Warner and hope to see Toshiba throw in the towel. Warner did what was sensible, they teamed up with the side that was winning nearly 65:35. If they would have done any differently, they truly would have been making a stalemate of the format war. At this point, Toshiba is being disrespectful to the consumer and they're better off ending their loss sooner rather than later.

Sorry but this statement is silly.  Toshiba is trying to make money, thats what companies do.  If you don't like it, don't buy but stop acting like its a personal insult to you that they are marketing a competing product.
