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.
