Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Home Theater HD-DVD Petition

Keep in mind, Sony was on the losing side of the fence with the Beta/VHS war...they are out for blood now.

However, the next big move for Sony has been projected that they will "buy out" the HD-DVD camp to squash it for good, thus in the process, they would OWN the licensing...

Not saying that they will do anything with it, but if they own it at some point, they certainly could. Of course, I am not a huge Sony fan (I do own a Sony digital camcorder from about 6 years ago), and think that I could get a better product from someone else, but still. I think that they could certainly influence what happens moving forward.

Most of you probably don't remember Woolworths, but I see they are dropping HD-DVD in their retail UK stores.

I saw a couple of Woolworth stores in Germany and was just thinking to myself...wow, I forgot all about them, are they still around. Just not in the US much it appears.

Woolworth is now "The Bargain Shop" in Canada. There are a few stores scattered about.
