Huh? It's good for us consumers. Now all the studios will produce only on Blu-ray and this will certainly lower their production cost and ultimately, the discs themselves. Also, more hardware manufacturers will not have a headache of which way they should go, and now that they are certain, they can ramp up production knowing that consumers that want HD will go for Blu-ray no matter what.

This solve a hell lot of headache than create them...and the headache would only be: will I want a 40GB PS3 or a 80GB PS3? Or wait for future SKUs? Sony wins this time...their strategy finally pays off. Ken Kutaragi should be really proud.

Also, note that since PS3 helped them win this war, Sony is going to have a jolly good time selling PS3 since it is the cheapest Blu-ray player. So...thing's going good for Sony this year?

Sony does not own Bluray...

And in another news, Sony gives Toshiba something in return for its trouble: http://www.dailytech.com/article.aspx?newsid=10826

No wonder Sony didn't comment on HD-DVD's defeat...

And Microsoft's HD-DVD add on gets the axe: http://www.dailytech.com/Microsoft+Xbox+36...rticle10829.htm
