HD DVD Promotion Group formally dissolved
Section: Video, DVD Players/DVRs, HDTV
While the announcement from Toshiba pulling HD DVD support essentially killed of the format, we can now officially declare it dead. The HD DVD Promotion Group has officially been closed, which removes any chance of resurgence of the format. The group, as of March 28 quietly shut themselves down, and so we have it, HD DVD is done. A quick visit to the HD DVD Promotion Group website, presents the simple message:
“The HD DVD Promotion Group was dissolved as of March 28, 2008, and the website was closed accordingly.”
Now lets move on to the next question; Will movie downloads begin to take shape, will we begin to see Blu-ray adoption or will most people just choose to continue with the standard DVD?
