im not talking about the PC drive, im talking about the xbox-360 hd-dvd drive, it doesent have write capabilties, your correct about the rest however.

depending on the build quality and laser manufacturing, plus costs associated with the laser producer i dont think MS turn a profit on these, hd-dvd players are expensive.
