I’m feeling very Star Warsy today. Sorry for the pun.
Anyway, Matsushita, manufacturer of just about every single optical drive in the known universe, is saying that they believe the HD DVD wars are already one and that Blu-Ray is the clear victor. Toshiba must now come and bow to the Blu-Ray Council and commit ritual seppaku seppuku.
I think the most interesting aspect of this story isn’t what Matsushita is saying. Instead, it’s that they’ve decided to throw down in public like Fiddy on HOT 97.
