Paramount to end HD DVD releases next week
By
In a further sign that Sony Corp.’s Blu-ray has won the high-definition format war, Paramount Pictures home entertainment unit said Friday it will release its last HD DVD titles on Tuesday. Paramount said it is in the process of determining its Blu-ray release schedule.
The company intends to switch to Blu-ray after it offers “Things We Lost in the Fire” and “Into the Wild” in HD DVD. Universal Studios said last week it was shifting its focus to Sony’s Blu-ray standard. That announcement came after Toshiba Corp. said it would no longer develop, make or market players and recorders in HD DVD, the standard it invented.
