HD-DVD Has It's Day

Seems like October 24th is an exceptionally good day for early-ish adopters of the HD-DVD format.

That's the day that Out of Sight, Spartacus, The Thing and Twelve Monkeys are all being released in the US. Four great, great films and not one of them priced at over 30 dollars.

Of course, October 24th 2007 is scheduled to be a very bad day for HD-DVD early adopters, as they celebrate the first anniversary of such a wonderful spending spree by looking backk and wondering "Where did it all go wrong? At which moment in time did the HD-DVD format die, leaving me with hundreds of dollars of obsolete silicon?"

Because, face it, we all know that Blu-Ray is going to win, in the end.

Sure, but you'll have a Playstation 3 too and... well, I'm not exactly a massive fan of the Playstation series.

I'll be going for the Wii and a stand alone Blu-Ray player, I think.
