Blu-ray Discs are here to stay!

This weekend saw speculations in the international market, that the HD-DVD giant Toshiba is planning to scrap the production of the HD DVD format.

The firm has said that it was still reviewing its business strategy, and there have been absolutely no decision about the format, but the market specialist claims, after the defection of major hollywood studios to back the blu-ray format, the decision has to be made; sooner or later!

It all started last month just after christmas, when Warner Brothers decided to join the blu-ray wagon, for its future productions. So if you think of the business, there are only two significant names Universal Pictures and Paramount Pictures who patronise HD DVD. But with the market moving away, they will apparantely have to switch as well!

So to sum it up, Blu-Ray is here to stay!
