Netflix Dumps HD-DVD for BluRay

bluray1.jpg

Aaaand the format wars are coming even closer to being over. Blockbuster only rents BluRay in store, and now Netflix is dropping HD-DVD from it’s online lineup. Current library titles will remain until the stock is depleted, but that will be it.

HD-DVD is really hanging on by a thread. The longer is stays around, the longer consumer confusion will remain. It’s better for the industry as a whole to have one format, and hopefully the move by Netflix will push the bar further to ending this drawn out battle.

    Some of the Blockbuster stores in Brooklyn also have HD-DVD.
    Netflix will have HD-DVD until the end of the year.
    But yeah, all signs are pointing to HD-DVD meeting the Dodo real soon.
