Paramount dont mind. They were allways planning to drop HD-DVD the only reason they are staying with it for the present is to reap 180million payout deal with toshiba to try to keep the format alive for a few more months. Paramount will stick the deal to the very end to reap 180Mil from toshiba then Drop HD-DVD faster than you can blink and go Blu-ray so they can actually make some profit from selling disks for a change.
Toshibas secret 180million deal has made paramount a nice profit while toshiba get to suffer the loss of both the HD-DVD format and 180Million in bribes for Paramount to temporarilly drop blu-ray. This self administered punishment may hopefully teach them a lesson in better business ethics in the future.
Anyway they will recover HD players are only Bait to make consumers buy a $3000++ 1080P display to actually be able to watch in 1080P and toshiba make nice displays.
