Short and to the point:

After…

…Warner Bros. Chose BluRay over HD-DVD… HD-DVD camp chose to show shock at this instead of ‘business as usual’…
…Best Buy and Netflix Chose BluRay Support over HD-DVD…

and finally…

…Wal-Mart chooses BluRay over HD-DVD.

That’s it folks. Toshiba has chosen to cease production of both HD-DVD players and media. The game goes to BluRay.

Either stock up on your HD-DVD discs now while you can, or trade in your old HD-DVDs for BluRays today.

Set and Match…. or… Checkmate!

P.S. Universal has already announced upcoming BluRay support for all titles.
