I asked myself the same question. Last time I saw a Woolworth's store must've been 1992. Then I heard they closed down a whole bunch of stores. I was under the impression they had followed the "Montgomery Wards" route. Wait, don't tell me "Montgomery Wards" is still around too and decided to drop HD-DVD support as well.
I also thought the same. Last time I heard of Woolworth, it was plain 1992. I also miss New York Dept Store, it was gone from my old dwelling area's mall in 1993, when Marshals came to replace it there.

Woolworths in the UK is a separate company, and its still going though not quite as well recently from very poor decisions.
