The End of the DVD Format War
Toshiba announced this week that it was going to give up its attempt to make their HD-DVD format the industry standard.
This means that Sony's Blu-Ray format will emerge as the standard for high resolution DVDs (how fitting, since their Beta format lost out to VHS in a previous attempt at setting a video standard).
But what does this really mean? Will it cause the price of Blu-Ray DVD players to go up, since there is no longer a low cost competitor?
What should folks that purchased an HD-DVD player and movies do?
