They just announced on the NHK news here in Japan that Toshiba is abandoning their HD-DVD business. They cited a few reasons, including Warner and Wall-mart backing Blu-Ray. Toshiba will sell out existing stock, but are shutting down production, promotion, etc., of HD-DVD. If you've been waiting to purchase a high-definition video player based on this platform fight, now you can rest assured that Blu-Ray is the way to go!

I posted this here first, knowing there is a thread in Tilted Technology, so mods, feel free to merge this with the other thread when appropriate.
