Dear [PRIVACY ACT OF 1974]:

Thanks for writing!

Thank you for your support. As you no doubt know, Warner's decision was a surprise but, this announcement does not change Toshiba's commitment to support our consumers and HD DVD. The HD DVD format still enjoys the support of major and independent film studios in addition to Microsoft [55 studios total].

Toshiba intends to continue to market HD DVD players for the US market at prices reasonable to consumers. HD DVD continues to be the only next generation format that has delivered superior video performance, audio performance combined with unrivaled interactive features at a reasonable cost.

For further assistance, please write back or call our Customer Solutions Department at 1-800-631-3811. They are available Mon-Fri, 8AM to 7PM Central time.

Toshiba Customer Service

I'm totally supporting the official successor to DVD, HD-DVD. In light of Sony's inferior blu-ray and their misleading marketing ops tempo, I just wanted to let you know there are many options to eliminate blu-ray once and for all. The following article you might find interesting: http://www.itbusinessedge.com/blogs/rob/?p=183

Well it sounded good a week ago at least.

I would not be surprised if Toshiba ceased production of HD DVD video players, but they likely have a sufficient inventory to continue to sell them for quite some time.


Everyone here should note, it is already early Monday morning in Tokyo, we may hear a real press release from Toshiba in Japan before the evening here is over...
