PCWorld.com is reporting that Toshiba, the company most pushing for success of the HD-DVD video disc format, has said they plan to delay the U.S. consumer launch of the product. This news comes as the competing HDTV disc format, Blu-ray, gains Hollywood and Silicon Valley momentum. Just last week, talks broke off between the HD-DVD and Blu-ray camps that would merge the formats or at least create a unified group to support the long awaited HD format. It is likely HD-DVD's delay is in reaction to this set back. Ask any consumer what they think of another format war holding them up from getting movies on discs in HDTV and you will get an earful of anger...

With the ghosts of Butterfield, Bloomfield and even Muddy Waters smiling down, these legends joined forces once again last year, and the result is Buried Alive In The Blues (audio CD plus 60-minute DVD), recorded live with backing by a band of top flight pros, including Gary Mallaber, Rick Reed and Zach Wagner. A typically furious night in late 2004 at Fitzgerald's, the venue that has become a beacon for blues fans over the years, was the main source for Buried Alive In The Blues, both as a 14-track live album and the DVD featuring live performance of many of the songs interspersed with band interviews and on-screen recollections, relating much of the history of North Side Chicago blues.
