I sure would like to know what the deal between Toshiba/MS and Paramount consisted of. It would be mind boggling
Clearly, that is DVD at this point you mean. Moves like this seem intended to ensure no single format (HD movie channels, HD PPV or On Demand, Blu-ray, HD-DVD, HD streaming) becomes an 800 lb. gorilla. To what end? I have no idea. I'm sure whatver the grand scheme is, it has been plotted with the best interests of consumers in mind though.
