Wal-Mart going HD-DVD exclusive (slashdot comment)

[Sonar5]

Ok I read the idiot's comments. His context is this.

Another moron did an article back in April of '07
http://news.digitaltrends.com/talkback184.html

That moron stated

It means that any studio wanting Wal-Mart’s support after year end had better be selling HD DVD movies. Wal-Mart won’t be promoting Blu-Ray and, after year end, will increasingly focus their marketing on getting people to buy into HD DVD players and the related HD DVD movie from them.

And this....

So, if this move by Wal-Mart is true , and it appears to be (but we won’t know for sure for a few months yet), the format war is likely over and Wal-Mart has declared the winner.

BTW - I read another article from this idiot from I think 12/06 where he said hd-dvd will win, and blu-ray will be gone by the end of 2007. Yeah, how did that work out for ya?
