Well, sort of. It seems Toshiba has licensed the technology in China and the players are outselling Blu-ray by a 3 to 1 margin. And why not? The discs cost a fourth as much BRDs. I leaned toward HD DVD in the high def format wars, and my side lost (or so I thought). We have Blu-ray players now, but we buy very few Blu-ray movies. The Sony player also upconverts regular DVDs very nicely and for all but the most "special" movies, that quality is more than good enough. If I could get HD movies for the same price as DVDs, though, I'd certainly buy them. Will the new CBHD (China Blue High Def) format spread around the world? We can only hope. Read more here...
