Have we missed the raal issue

Sony has tried all kinds of CP only to see them go down in flames
You can bet that they threatened and paid big bucks to get some software off the market.
Sony lost the Batamax - VCR war because they tried to control the market price
They didn?t have the leverage and lost

Sony bought up a large portion of the media,
Sony Owns Them and now they say we will only provide HD in Blu- Ray.
If one wants an HD program, Sony will dictate and the buying public will PAYthe Sony price.

Yes, copies are being made by individuals but there a big drop in the bucket compared to those from China and other parts of the world

If you want to see Sony get filthy rich just go with Blu-Ray and pay the price

The company has said it will not be releasing a press release but has confirmed all reports that it will be dropping HD DVD. The move will go into effect beginning in April with the release of "Sharkwater."
Well at least they did not deny the fact and just said that they are making the switch i guess this is wat i like to see no beating around the bush just being straight from the get go i wonder if other people can take note and follow the footsteps :P
