 cd Does this mean the end of the HD-DVD wars?

We here at techRivet had previously predicted that the High Definition DVD wars would end with the opposite result, a victory for HD-DVD.  Primarily because of the decision of the adult industry to produce their titles in HD-DVD format exclusively.

Here: HD DVD vs. Blu-ray: it's all over.

And then we had some little egg on our face as we had to retract part of that broad statement when Sony began to offer support to the adult industry later in the year.

Here: Sony wises up and listens to techRivet

Now Warner Brothers has stopped straddling the format divide and put both feet on the Blu-Ray bus Toshiba is going to need a near miracle to win the war.  There are a bunch of VPs, Executive VPs and  C-level folks over at Toshiba that are not getting very much sleep tonight.

Toshiba Corp. late Friday said it was 'quite surprised' by Warner Bros.' decision to adopt Sony Corp.'s (NYSE:SNE) Blu-ray disc format instead of Toshiba's HD DVD.

eh...no longer satisfied with a little two eggs over easy on our face, we now have a full omelette with all the trimmings...mmmmmm omelettes, brb.
