Well, I bought an upconversion DVD player to play my DVD's to save the wear and tear on my BD player.

answer yourself this if you have a 4:3 SDTV, why would you buy Toshibas $150 Super-Dee-Duper Upconversion player? You wouldn't.

I have nothing against them promoting DVD, its when they try to pass off DVD as a substitute over BD for HD content, that I have a big problem with.

DVD is a big market and will continue to be a big market, so cater to your market Toshbia, don't try to steal a market that you have already failed to win in with an even more inferior product.

and Tron, I believe you are seriously wrong, when you say that you don't think Toshiba is trying to destroy the BD market, they are trying to destroy the BD market. They don't invest a billion dollars in CELL for 960p upconversion if they aren't gunning after blu-ray.
Ahh, my friend, nice points. But ever consider that Toshiba is trying to destroy itself? We live in a world of incompetent CEO's who head up corporations and never set foot in the stores themselves.

Sure, I can agree Toshiba is pissed and honestly do believe they are still taking jabs at blu-ray. I was just trying to take the higher road instead of bashing them. But it looks like I'll have to find my wacking stick and join you guys.
