Toshiba, MS, and Panasonic work on DVD 2.0, a standard DVD thats like a HD DVD

Recently Sony Electronics president Stanley Glasgow said “The battle really begins now to move people away from DVD to Blu-ray,". It seems as though DVD forum, chaired by Toshiba, is going to do everything it can to make it one tough battle. They have decided to try to overhaul the standard DVD format by finding ways to "incorporate some of the same next-gen functionality developed for HD DVD into a DVD 2.0 format, including the HDi interactive layer and the advanced network connectivity."

1. Video encoded in MPEG2 SD
2. HD available via Super Upconversion to 960p
3. HDi interactivity
4. Networking
5. Managed Copy
6. Fully backward compatible with existing DVD players. - това най ме радва

хехе, имайки предвид последните развития около блу-рей и ХД ДСД, май този формат може и да е пред пускане. Искрено се надявам Сони да ядат хурката поне частично. Няма нищо по-лошо от липсата на конкуренция.
