Are the HD disks profitable enough for Wal Mart to sell the player at a loss? In selling each $99 player, Wal Mart has created a potentially long stream of profits from the sale of HD formatted disks, disks that would not have sold at all otherwise.

If Wal Mart sells groceries at a loss, it drags people into stores past more profitable merchandise with a higher margin. Sneaky people, those retailers.
