Default hddvd petition for firmware upgrade..

Hi all,
I need some help, I have a petition for Toshiba to make thier HDDVD players
play mp3,wma and jpeg file. All this would take is a firmware update. For
some reason they don't play these files. I know that HDDVD is dead and some
of you may think that there is no point to it, but the fact is that this
player is a super good upconverting dvd player(albiet slow to boot). It is
also time sensitive because they have to stopped making the players just
yet...they will just be labeling them diffeent. They will/are now labelled
as A3 UPCONVTERING/HDDVD player. I would hate to put this unit on the shelf
because it won't play mp3s. So if you have a minute and bored could you
skip on over to http://www.hddvdpetition.info/module...me=Mp3petition
and sign it...

1) You do not have to register to sign it
2) Your email address is OPTIONAL..and I don't have the time or effort to
spam you if you do leave it...
3) It take about 20 seconds

Thanks for your time

While you're at it, demand that they support CDi, CD+G, CDV5
and Kodak PhotoCD as well. They're about as likely to do so.

Sell the thing on eBay and get on with life.

Experience, alas, is frequently not cheap.

3 out of 5 home HD removable media formats have now failed.
All could.
