Toshiba to stop producing HD .. BLU-RAY WINNER !

From this source : http://www.reuters.com/article/rbssC...27196120080216

Quote:
TOKYO (Reuters) - Toshiba Corp is planning to stop production of equipment compatible with the HD DVD format for high-definition video, allowing the competing Blu-Ray camp a free run, public broadcaster NHK reported on Saturday.
This is good news! This format war was killing the HD industry, since many consumers were not buying HD equipements because of the format war.

Yup, Blu-ray is THE best technology, giving way more future opportunity than HD-DVD !

By the way, was nice to meet you yesterday Dre. I was kinda tired and drunk, Dan D-noy paid us so much drink!

Also, Wal-Mart is dropping HD-DVD for Blu... Means HD-DVD is DEAD!

Source : http://www.1080living.com

Quote:
First Blockbuster, then Warner, Netflix, and Best Buy along with many overseas companies. This was followed with strong word that Toshiba will be releasing their own Blu-Ray player along with news that Circuit City is also dropping HD-DVD.

Now the worlds largest retailer Walmart has officialy announced that effective June 2008 it will support Blu-Ray over HD-DVD.

Yes, it's official now, they gave up, too bad for a good technology. Blu-ray may be better, but more expensive.
