Almost a year after the death of HD DVD, two of the failed format's biggest proponents refuse to get behind Blu-ray - in fact, Toshiba believes it can win the high definition format war with a standard DVD player.
I wasn't so much interested in this story, but some of the included stats on Blu-ray in Australia was interesting:
Out of the 2.3 million Australian households with a high definition TV set, only 400,000 have a Blu-ray player and, of those, 370,000 are PlayStation 3 games consoles, which feature Blu-ray built in. That means just 30,000 Australian households have picked up a stand-alone Blu-ray player.
