Anyone heard this yet, It has been announced last week but is official, hd dvd is dead. Gamestop stopped taking hd dvd trade-ins and other companies are not supporting hd dvd. No more format wars, meaning cheaper blu ray players (hopefully)

No they didnt buy it...

They got a ton of studios on their side so very little movies are being made on the HD dvd format meaning its dead.

Blu-ray discs are actually bigger than HD-dvd discs.

A'ight, I think I'm caught up now...

Could you play Blu-ray on an HD-dvd player?
Or do you need something blu-ray specific.
