I think the war has been won - there are just a number of battles still in progress.
Toshiba need more than Universal and Microsoft on side. Toshiba are cutting their own throat in a couple of ways.
1. They are spending money on a product whoose success is very doubtful
2. They make TV's and other high def displays. This market is being stunted by them having the HD-DVD out and about.
My prediction Toshiba will get a License to make a Hybrid player to gracefully exit the HD-DVD arena. I would say at the CES in a years time (not this comming Jan the one after)
