The Walmart Kiss of Death…for HD DVDs, that is - They’re going BLU
This just in
Wal-Mart Stores announced on Friday morning that it has chosen a side in the battle for high-definition video supremacy: by June, it will stock only Blu-ray Disc players.
This is quite the bummer for non Blu-ray disc players. To wit:
…Back in December I posted a Blog that said “HD or BD – Does Anyone Care.” I only received one response, I was very disappointed.
But following the news from Best Buy and Netflix, everyone’s asking “what about Wal-Mart?” Ok, so are you ready…Wal-Mart is going Blu. MORE….

…I have one of the best jobs in the world. I get to buy the most fashionable products, we have new items in store every Tuesday, and get to deal with some of the most creative people. I am a Buyer in the movie category at Wal-Mart. (I bet you thought I was going to say apparel.) Did you know Wal-Mart carries over 15,000 different movies at any one time? ….
This spells DOOM in big huge capital letters for merchants who aren’t Blu.
Why is Blu better, I hear you ask? You can check out:
Wonder how the opposition will respond?
ThankYouVeryMuch!
