Oh, how the times have changed. Merely months ago we caught Frank Simonis, chairman of the Blu-ray Disc Association, firing off all sorts of vitriol at the red camp, and now that the wheels are falling off of the HD DVD wagon, we’re seeing quite the change of heart. According to a recent interview with Tech Radar, Mr. Simonis was quoted as saying that Toshiba and Microsoft, along with any other company, is “more than welcome to join the BDA.” He continued by stating that if “Toshiba decides to drop HD DVD, it would extend the hand of friendship to them.” Yeah, it’s kind of cute to see such lovey-dovey phrases being thrown around, but we’ve all ideas none of these heartfelt feelings are easing the sting felt by Toshiba right about now.
