Toshiba Officially Drops HD DVD Format
The High Definition race between Blu-Ray and HD DVD is officially over, Maniacs.
We expected this to come soon after the trade announced hints last week but now Toshiba is sending out an official press release as confirmation.
Toshiba Corporation today announced that it has undertaken a thorough review of its overall strategy for HD DVD and has decided it will no longer develop, manufacture and market HD DVD players and recorders. This decision has been made following recent major changes in the market. Toshiba will continue, however, to provide full product support and after-sales service for all owners of Toshiba HD DVD products.
HD DVD was developed to offer consumers access at an affordable price to high-quality, high definition content and prepare them for the digital convergence of tomorrow where the fusion of consumer electronics and IT will continue to progress.
