Principal architect of HD DVD, Toshiba announced its intention during February withdraw next generation optical format market players lounge. In doing so, he ends the battle between Blu-ray championed by Sony and it leaves the field open for itself as the standard for high definition.It is difficult to determine with precision the reasons for the failure. The DVD Forum, theoretically responsible for deciding how the standards should be organized on the matter. The DVD Forum agreed that we should move to high definition.

We have the Blu-ray, and presents opportunities in terms of lower growth than the DVD at a time. In parallel there dematerialized content, with video on demand, which will certainly nibbling a piece of the pie. At Toshiba, all HD DVD players were equipped with an Ethernet jack to allow them to connect to the network. We already advanced to the download content. Today is an open discussion.

Toshiba is committed to keep consumers informed of all developments of the situation. In parallel, we wish to secure about the after sales service, which will be provided for all our readers. However, we have not developed the proposal for compensation. Although topics such as product, with price erosion, HD DVD players still have some value. We even see people who still seek to buy the HD-X1 (HD DVD the most expensive of the range Toshiba, ed) for its qualities in terms of image processing.

Toshiba does not necessarily emerge weakened from this adventure. Financially, it is certain that we have suffered losses, but they would probably have been higher if we had waited longer. These losses are extremely difficult to calculate as many parameters come into account. If they were, the figure is known at the highest level. Toshiba has worked hard to get out quality products with excellent value for money. Today, the brand is removed, but his work was appreciated. It's been a difficult decision, and courageous, which will facilitate the emergence of the market of high definition. The HD DVD has finally enabled Toshiba to exit a certain anonymity on the market for consumer electronics, where the brand has occupied the space.

Toshiba, in any case would be ready for the post HD DVD. Thus, on specialized sites, do not hesitate to mention that two Blu-ray Toshiba are currently signed in progress and could be sold between July and September at 250 and 350 dollars. The Japanese would do so not much time to recover. Especially as the market for Blu-ray decks lounge is still in its infancy. Because today - apart from the game console Sony PlayStation 3 - can not recommend purchasing any DVD player Blu-ray. If the obituary for HD DVD appears to be about to be published Blu-ray, it is still premature format.
