HD DVD Promotion Group Turns Out the HD DVD Lights

Not that this is too much of a surprise but we report today the demise of the HD DVD Promotion Group. This was the group, anchored by Toshiba, which brought together the companies which supported the HD DVD format under one trade organization umbrella. It is, as you can see from this screen shot of the group's Web site, no more.

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of HD DVD. This more or less puts the final nail in the HD DVD coffin.
