Toshiba has a 51GB disk approved by all members including Disney. By the
time it arrives later this year it will be a finished and fully tested spec
unlike Beta Ray.

note that MOST Beta Ray movies are still on 30GB disks.

In fact most games especially from EA that are on the PS3 are just regular
old...DVD's.

Another thing, Warner Brothers masters ALL it's new HD stuff in HD-DVD
first, then copies it to Blu ray.
So if your watching a Blu ..Beta Ray WB movie, it's just a copy of an
HD-DVD.
