But make sure stores always have a few left in stock, and re-sell them new ones so the stores still make a profit. Sell the discs for cheap like what Amazon is doing in the other thread. Make the HD-DVD add on for the Xbox ultra cheap.

Then in 3 months announce that you are bringing back the format. Because so many people will now own players, it could make a bit of a comeback.
Damn. That's actually quite brilliant.
