Well, good news for HD-DVD...
K-Mart here in the States has dropped carrying Blu-Ray Players and only carry HD-DVD players. They will however continue to carry PS3 units.
Now of course the next big word will come from WARNER BROS. Up until now they have released titles on both Hi-Def formats but word has it they are about to pick only one. This could change the course of which format will finally win.

With PARAMOUNT sticking only with HD-DVD for 18 months and having the huge TRANSFORMERS and next SHREK 3, not to mention STAR TREK (The Original Series Remastered in Hi-Def) coming out in Nov.; and with the price drops on Toshiba players HD-DVD has a lot going for it it right now. Also, consumers are getting very upset over the new regulations set down on Blu-ray players released as of Oct. 31 which will make many new Blu film releases, and bonus features incompatible with previously released players. This all adds up to going against Blu.

This format war is very sleazy.
