Sony May Sell HD-DVDs

MarkRH writes "Although many sites posted the Reuters story on Sony merging its optical storage operations with NEC, people forget that NEC is one of the four senior members of the HD-DVD Promotion Group. What this means is that by next year the merged unit could sell CD drives, DVD drives, Blu-Ray, and 'perhaps even that other format,' a Sony spokesman told eWEEK. A bit shocking, given the acrimonious nature of the rivalry so far."

    BUT, I'm not going to BUY them personally. I'm sticking to my no Sony policy.

    I no longer like the fact that a small part of every DVD and DVD player sale goes to Sony.

    Best not buy any CD's either!
