One had to expect it; Samsung announced that it is withdrawing from the market of (expensive) hybrid players capable to read Blu-ray format and also HD-DVD.
It is absolutely incredible the speed that the HD-DVD is disappearing.
Already, large stores such as FNAC have banished them from their shelves and catalogues.
At this rate, in a couple of weeks there will only be a bitter taste left for those who have pushed this format. However we can guarantee that this bitter taste will take much longer to pass away.
