First, it is certainly true that the production stop of Toshiba has defnitiv sealed the end of HD DVD in the long term. Because there is certainly nothing to shake.
Nevertheless, you have to because of the current price situation in the HD DVD market be clear about that already from a purchase 10-15 HD DVD player is fully funded, since the HD DVD media are partly simply cheaper at the moment. There is hardly BluRay DVDs that cost currently under 25.00. Frankly, the price of the BluRay is much higher. In contrast, many entry level HD DVDs are with film classics already acquire for less than 10.00. So worth it even in the face of low prices for sale goods in the hardware sector by Toshiba but consider whether you are not at times advised favorable with the HD DVD purchase.
In the long run then worth later also to buy a BluRay device when it fell below the personal pain threshold price. In the future, devices will certainly be in the price range below 300.00.
Finally, should not be disregarded that the two top models from Toshiba (HD 35 / XE1) DVD player with very good scaling are both also quality properties. A comparable DVD players (the then but really only plays DVDs and no HD media) will cost not less than the Toshiba HD DVD leaders.
Certainly it should be considered probably an acquisition at the present time. However, a 100% bad investment is not buying an HD DVD player at the time in my opinion.
