It’s finally official, Sony’s Blu-ray wins the HD format war.

From MSNBC: Toshiba announced today that it will no longer make HD DVD players and recorders. Toshiba’s president, Atsutoshi Nishida, said that Warner Bros. Entertainment’s decision last month to release videos in Blu-ray format only had a tremendous impact and they simply had no chance to win.

An estimated 1 million HD DVD players have been sold worldwide and Toshiba promises that it will still continue to provide support for them.
