Multimedia, AV Toshiba said Tuesday it will no longer manufacture HD-DVDs, effectively ending the long-running battle with the rival Blu-ray for a dominant high-definition format. Toshiba said it made the decision to cease developing, manufacturing, and marketing HD-DVDs after 'recent major changes in the market'. It promised to continue offering support and service for all 1.3+ million Toshiba HD-DVDs sold so far.

There will always be the "next generation" thing but hopefully the next format war end a little sooner.

For this generation of disk stored data, it's now smooth saily and all those who baught PS3's too get affordable disk readers seem to have guessed right.

Now too wait while the disk writers slowly drop in price to remotely reasonable.
