so all the cheap players sold recently did not help HD DVD getting back.
No wonder, people buying USD 99 players do not buy many USD 25 movies.
USA is the only place in the world were some people still take HD DVD seriously. I still wonder why.
HD DVD has dropped from 100% to 34% of the USA market for movies. It might hold on to a nice in in USA, while the rest of the world move on to Blu Ray.
