Well, maybe everyone else except LG. Universal Studios Home Entertainment and Universal Pictures Digital Platforms has now turn their backs on Toshiba's HD DVD - one day after Toshiba decided to end the development of their product.
However, LG decided to continue to develop players compatible with both Blu-ray and HD DVD format, which would "therefore create simplicity and convenience for the existing HD DVD consumer".
So I bet now Sony's PS3 would receive a little bit more attention since the game console comes with a Blu-ray player. However, the pricing of the console depends a lot on it's competition with XBox rather than the price of manufacturing a Blu-ray disc player. And the last I read, Microsoft is already slashing the prices of its XBox360 in Canada to compete with the PS3 and the top-selling Nintendo Wii.
Personally, I have only tried the Wii so far cause it's more popular and therefore more people has it. I can understand why it's making a hit and I certainly had a lot of fun with it. But as for getting a console that has more choices of games, I would prefer to get a PS3 - of course, now it becomes more attractive considering the disc player that comes with it. Or maybe if I can save up some money, I could get both Wii and PS3.
But...that would leave the XBox360...hehe...OK...can't be greedy now ;p
