Blu-ray wins...

Toshiba just announced the surrender of HD-DVD, an end of this interesting high-def-next-gen video disc format war, just 2 years after it started. Sure is fast. Yeah, it's all cool, the fight, Sony's revenge after the loss of Betamax.

But I have one thing to say. I seldom watch TV and don't plan to buy a TV in the future. The internet+PC is the sole method of my home entertainment. Heck, I seldom watch DVDs on my computer. The last video format that matters to me is VHS tapes, after that, LD, VCD, DVD, HD-DVD, Blu-ray, non of them ever played an important role in my life. Some years back there, programs and movies stopped being entertaining.
