Many of us were surprised, if not shocked. I think Toshiba just read the handwriting on the wall. I can’t remember the name of the studio, but one said it was only going to ship Blue Ray. Then another distributor came out and said “only Blue Ray”. Then Netflix came out and said: “Only Blue Ray”. This in only the last few weeks. This was a customer-industry driven decision. I see some poetic justice here. Years ago Sony’s Betamax was superior but lost out to VHS.

Guess this time Sony didn't have to deal with the porn industry, since today it's mostly distributed online.
