The war is over! (HD-DVD's vs Blu-ray)

Spoiler: Blu-ray won.

Several major electronic companies just stoped making HD-DVD players, also many major retailers are no longer carying the ones still in production.

I tried to warn people, i really did.

well as far as I'm concerned, if they do stop producing HD-DVD drive all in all then blu-ray drives' price would drop eventually

well honestly it is possible for prices to start dropping within the next few months. but I wouldn't expect huge drops if they do.
