Don't worry. We'll hijack it and rename it something else.

On AVSforum it says Toshiba may also soon announce eliminating HDDVD, this really sucks for those with HDDVD players. What the heck do you do, just use it to upconvert old DVDs?

If HDDVD does in fact die, it will be released on BluRay, they wouldn't want to miss out on more money would they?

I really didn't expect HD to go this fast. I honestly thought Jan of 09 was when it would get decided.

That really sucks for all the people that purchased HDDVD players and started to collect the movies. Now I suppose BluRay will jack there prices back up.

it does suck that walmart, best buy and netflix seem to control the world. ok, hd dvd world at least. \:\)

this doesnt mean the movies and players stop working. plus we still have a solid up converting player.

later.
