RIP HD-DVD (Acronyms are taking over)

As the title suggests, the guys at Toshiba have decided to pull the plug on their HD-DVD campaign following a shock decision by Wal-Mart store to only cater for Blu-Ray discs and not distribute said HD-DVDs. This will allow Blu-Ray discs to be the next in line for home film technology as it will no doubt gently edge DVD out of the picture in the coming years.

Michael Bay, director of such films such as 'Transformers' backed Blue-Ray from the start and he had this to say - "Hahaha i told you all so!"

I don't Toshiba will be laughing about this as it is said to of cost them hundreds of millions of dollars to scrap production and step out of the format war.
