It's not Toshiba's fault that movie studios didn't accept the format though...Toshiba might still produce the players...we don't know they're going to totally cut off all production.
I think anybody who jumped into Blu-Ray and especially HD-DVD so early excluding PS3 owners was stupid...it wasn't a guaranteed win until a few months ago when the movie studios shifted toward Blu-Ray the most. Those people paid more for discs and players than they needed to, just because it's the newest tech. It's their fault for thinking HD-DVD and Blu-Ray could co-exist forever.

Bet with disolitude: Left4Dead will have a higher Metacritic rating than Project Origin, 3 months after the second game's release. (hasn't been 3 months but it looks like I won :-p )
