Feb 15th 2008 4:58PM And you're making decisions with Uni and Paramount claiming they won't jump ship either?

It's over.
Wal-Mart to officially discontinue HD DVD sales by June {Engadget HD}
Feb 15th 2008 12:19PM Nice try Truth Teller. It's the company's OFFICIAL blog.
And guess what?
IT'S OFFICIAL

- National discount retailer Wal-Mart announced Friday that it had decided to only sell Sony's Blu-ray hi-definition movie discs, and will phase out Toshiba's competing HD-DVD formatted discs over the next several months.
Wal-Mart said that by June, its 4,000 Wal-Mart and Sam's Club stores would sell only Blu-ray discs and Blu-ray hardware players. Blu-ray and Toshiba's HD-DVD format are not compatible.
"We've listened to our customers, who are showing a clear preference toward Blu-ray products and movies with their purchases," said Gary Severson, Wal-Mart's Senior Vice President of Home Entertainment in a statement.

Toshiba gearing up to drop HD DVD? {Engadget HD}
Feb 15th 2008 11:02AM @Nfinity:
Dark Knight on HD DVD? You're talking as if it's been announced or something...
You accuse Blu-ray supporters of spreading false hope, thinking Uni and Paramount will go Blu...
YET you talk about crap like Gladiator and Dark Knight coming to HD DVD when it's been anything but announced.
You're such a hypocrite.

Amazon takes 50% off 150 HD DVDs {Engadget HD}
Feb 14th 2008 5:50PM You know for such a supposed awesome sale for a player that's supposedly selling like hot cakes on Amazon, you'd think that HD-DVD would be grossly outselling Blu-ray discs...

Best Buy's pushing Blu-ray to the front {Engadget HD}
Feb 11th 2008 5:16PM Good news? Huh?
Starting with the beginning of the year, EVERY SINGLE ANNOUNCEMENT regarding support for either side has been very much in favor of Blu-ray.
For an announcement from Toshiba to be "good news" it would have to make Netflix, Best Buy, Sony, WB/New Line, Disney, Fox, etc... look foolish. Short of "HD DVD will travel through time," this won't happen.
And you accuse people of spreading FUD...now you're accusing BDA of paying Netflix and Best Buy with nothing to back that up?
You're such a hypocrite.

Feb 8th 2008 12:49PM I'm pretty sure Bourne Supremacy is part of a bundle with the HD DVD...
If so, let's see if they take back their statements about Blu-ray standalones not counting with HDTV purchases...
