Oχι ακριβως επισημο μιας και την αλλη εβδομαδα θα ερθει η ανακοινωση απο το στομα της Τoshiba οτι ο πολεμος των φορματ τελειωσε.
Well θα μου μεινει το ασπρο drive του 360 να μου θυμιζει τις "Glory Days" ;D

Both Japan's NHK and Reuters are reporting that Toshiba is going to finally pull the trigger on HD DVD, ending the format war after being punted by Wal-Mart (the country's biggest retailer), Best Buy and Netflix. The official announcement will come next week, though Reuters' source confirmed that "We have entered the final stage of planning to make our exit from the next generation DVD business." RIP HD DVD, you will always have a place on our mantle. At least until we buy a Blu-ray player.
Παραξενο δεν ειμαι τοσο χαρουμενος οσο νομιζα οτι θα ειμαι, ισως επειδη ο πολεμος κρατουσε τις τιμες σε oλο και πιο χαμηλα επιπεδα,ισως επειδη οι ελπιδες μου να δω στην Ελλαδα αυτο εκμηδενιστηκαν.According to Reuters, "Toshiba is expected to suffer losses amounting to tens of billions of yen (hundreds of millions of dollars) to scrap production of HD DVD players and recorders and other steps to exit the business."That's what happens in a high-risk all-or-nothing format war. Sony must feel pretty good right about now, especially after historic defeats with Betamax, ATRAC, UMD, and more. Blu-ray in PS3 was a risky gamble: it created a price point that many mocked, and generated a good amount of negative publicity for the Japanese electronics giant. However, it was also the Trojan Horse that allowed it to gain such a large percentage of the HD-aware mindset. With this victory, it appears that Sony's plans are finally coming together.
