Remember back in 2007 when the battle for high-definition disc was being waged between Sony’s Blu-ray and Toshiba’s HD-DVD? Although some of the echos of that battle can still be heard today (see a Blu-ray player for the Xbox 360, anyone?), Toshiba is apparently done feeling sorry for itself after formally putting the HD-DVD format out to pasture in early 2008: reports in the Japanese newspaper Yomiuri Shimbun have Toshiba gearing up to launch its own line of Blu-ray players, at least in Japan, perhaps in time for the end-of-year holiday season.
