The first big shoe has dropped. Warner brothers has announced that they will no longer support HD-DVD and focus its efforts on promoting Sony’s Blu-ray standard as a high definition medium.
As much as I would prefer HD-DVD to take and keep the lead, this has got to be a blow to Toshiba and the HD-DVD camp. The good news: one way or the other, we’ll have a winner in the format war, just in time for both formats to be obsolete.
