February 12th: HD DVD strikes back??

[Elandyll]

From someone who speaks fluently French (and who is actually French), it is just yet another press conference where the new marketing position of Toshiba is going to be discussed on the European level, nothing more.

Many people (possibly in the know) suggest following the initial post that Toshiba is going to anounce lower prices for Europe (following the US discounts) and a position as "Upscaling DVD" to the masses of their products.

Many posters that follow note that with Warner switching, 2 studios only will be far too small to support the format, even if Toshiba reverses the sales trend (which is very unlikely at this point).
