Sorry if posted already, but I didn't see very much excitement so I figure most people are still sleeping in this morning.

No, this report is only dated today, and is a follow-up on the previous Hollywood Reporter story.

It's on NHK's report from Japan, so it is new. ...or at least new to me.

Its official, Toshiba have given up on HD-DVD production and closed down their factories. Please post on the existing threads about this.

Yes, it was posted a few times, but it's always good to read it again and again from numerious sources saying that that HD-Dud is finally through.

Bring Metallica to the BLU - you know it makes sense!!!!

UKTruBlu · 02-16-2008, 04:50 PM

I'm so glad that vitory is just round the corner as they say. This 'War' only lasted because of the shoddy values of M$, it would have been over this christmas gone if Transformers, Shrek et al had been availiable on BLU.
