The holiday season doesn't have any big exciting technologies coming out to make big bucks on, so they're looking to make money off high-def. This isn't about selling Blu-ray Disc players, it's about selling HDTVs along with the player. At CEDIA last year and CES this year the BDA stated they're looking at Blu-ray to expand the HDTV market. Target just chose one technology to sell to bring in the big holiday dollars. I could be completely wrong though, but it seems logical enough to me. It does make sense that Target would go to Sony to do this.
