All Bluray manufacturing will be now handled by Toshiba, as Sony has sold (or is in the process, rather) the Bluray factory. Sony also sold PS3 chip production facilities to Toshiba. Seems to make sense why they'd essentially give up without much of a fight. I don't think Microsoft will have any problem dealing with Toshiba.
