China certainly hopes so, whose China Blue HD (CBHD) just received a shot in the arm from Warner Brother's announcement that it plans to support the format with several films in the first half of 2009."</em></p><p><img src="http://images.thoughtsmedia.com//dht/auto/1236295257.usr10.png" style="border: 1px solid #d2d2bb;" /></p><p>To even have a chance this would have to be absurdly cheap. Cheap as in a $50 player and movies priced comparable to normal DVDs that were preferably dual disks like many HD-DVD's were. Even then, I'd say the chance of success is doubtful. More than likely, this is a play by Warner Brother's to get some kind of concession from the Blu-ray camp.</p>
