	It sounds like conspiracy theory to me.
	If Microsoft is spending hundreds of millions to push HD-DVD, 
against the opposition of its rival Sony, I think its rather more 
likely that they actually want HD-DVD to win. If Microsoft really 
wanted online downloads to beat HD-DVD/Blu-Ray, they'd put hundreds 
of millions into promoting online downloads.
