Toshiba Execs Declare HD DVD Not Dead Yet

Lucas123 writes "HD DVD proponent Toshiba remains defiant that its format will not succumb to the mounting tsunami of support for Blu-ray Discs. Akio Ozaka, head of Toshiba America Consumer Products, said at CES today that he was surprised by Warner's decision." It should also be noted that the HD DVD group has cancelled many of their meetings at CES.

    So it goes like this:
    1. Add Blu-Ray to console
    2. Be a year late to market, more expensive than competition, and overall the worst selling console
    3. ???
    4. Dominate the HD market! A nice summary, but your ??? is in the wrong place, it is really more like:

    1. Add Blu-Ray to console
    2. Be a year late to market, more expensive than competition, and overall the worst selling console (but still sell millions)
    3. Dominate the HD market!
    4. ???
