I've said for sometime this Beta vs VHS war would come to an end. In the HD-DVD vs Blueray wars, it's coming to a head. Fortunately, for my record, I've been predicting that BlueRay would win out for some time now. Well, the news is looking grim for HD DVD as of today.
As reported in Residential A/V Magazine with a headline that reads "Dark Clouds ahead for HD-DVD". While at CES last week, Warner Home Video announced they were abandoning the HD-DVD format. This means a huge loss for HD-DVD in the form of quantity of movies available. Regardless, there is an existing solution. An excellent HD-DVD/BlueRay combo DVD player that also plays standard DVDs is and has been available from LG for sometime now. Going for between $600-$1,000 depending on when, where and how you purchase, it is actually a pretty good bargain to be able to play all the formats on a single player.
