So Netflix has completely stopped buying HD DVD’s but the older titles are still available. If you decide you would like to adjust your format preferences to no longer receive HD DVD’s, be sure its exactly what you want because there is no going back. Once you change it, NetFlix acts like the HD DVD format never existed. YOU BE WARNED!
Be warned that if you decide to engage in your own format war, you could lose quite a bit of cash. Nikkei is reporting that Toshiba’s losses on HD DVD totaled in 2007 alone: $982m USD. It won’t drive Toshiba under or anything, but you seriously have to ask yourself, was it really all worth it? Ouch.
