Well, I do know that Toshiba gets a cut for every DVD media sold, and there is a start up fee to a "DVD association" if you want to start making and pressing DVD's. This I why Toshiba tried to maintain that cashflow by introducing HD-DVDs. I believe this similarly applies to Blu-Ray as well.

I doubt Sony is getting much out of it since the pack in Windows with their PC's..

What are you talking about?

I'll check out the video later. At work right now. But I still don't see how bundling Windows with their laptop negate them from earning royalties on a technology assumingly they have a part in.

Well Microsoft owns Windows..So it seems to be some sort of royalty stalemate...

It's a business move. Sony pays to have WIndows installed on their PC's, Microsoft pays the BDA royalties for Blu-ray. Just the way it is I think, unless I'm missing something.
