"Spokesmen from Toshiba also underlined the need to offer video content
stored on HD DVD media that will not feature any regional restrictions, as
it happens with current DVDs. Although final decisions about this matter
have not yet been announced, it is possible that the same HD DVD discs will
be reproduced by any HD DVD player worldwide."
Somebody somewhere is lying. Up til now the supposed reason for
region-limited DVDs is rights issues. Separate contracts are written for
different regions or it's cheaper to get, say, Region 4 rights than
worldwide righs. Exactly how is all that going to just go away because the
physical carrier is changed?
