Sony jacks up the price of Blu-ray

Comments

Tom's Hardware either biased or got gift from Toshiba...

...maybe along with The Inquirer for mirroring such an anti-Sony nonsense.
There is no monopoly, the BDA is a large association of manufacturers.
Why Tom's Hardware doesn't point out the fact that the LG GGW-H20L Blu-Ray burner and HD-DVD player combo drive for PCs is falling in price so much that in Europe for example you can buy it in OEM/Bulk version for as low as 200Euros...?
Sony is expected it lower the price of the PS3 down to $299 and €299 respectively during 2008. BD-R discs have started falling price as well down from previos $15-18 dollars now to just $8-9 a piece, and they are expected to go down to $4-5 during the year.

Better analysis please...

Not suprising really....Bound to happen in the short term, and no I am not making excuses for Sony before you say. All the players were reduced to next to zero margins (or subsidized) while competing with Toshiba...Give it a few months and the competion starts rolling off the production lines prices will drop...

Sony over 360?

you must be out of your mind to say that the ps3 hardware is superior to that of the 360 !! Get your facts right ! Oh and by the way I'm writing this on my iPhone ! Ha! One more thing the only piece of harwste the ps3 has over a 360 would be the player other than that the 360 takes the lead.

AT adds: Presumably your Iphone doesn't have a spellchecker.
