My, You ARE naive

>>>Sony loses out because of ingorant consumers<<<
So, now its the consumers fault.

>>>It's not just about Paramount<<<
True, but they may have realized, that the BD business model isn't working.
Just wait until Warner goes back to being HD DVD exclusive.

>>>If MS had their way, they'd control other studios too.<<<
As apposed to Sony, who has already started buying them up? You support that?

>>>Sony deserves to be financially rewarded and to receive certain exclusive rights, just as any company bringing a useful technology to market deserves the same. Otherwise, where is the incentive for R&D?<<<
So, you think they should be able to control the distribution of their competitor's products? Not to mention, they are shutting out independents.

>>>You want a marketplace where the richest bully can come along and dictate business practices in things like HD movie distribution,<<<
That's EXACTLY what Sony is doing. Thank you for admitting that.

>>>do you want a marketplace where the consumer can choose and help the best technology win?<<<
Yup, that's why I support the format war. Its giving us better quality products at better prices than anyone expected this soon.
