It appears the war will be officially over tomorrow.

TOKYO (AP) — Toshiba said it will announce its decision Tuesday on its HD DVD business, which has been under review as Hollywood studios and retailers dropped the video format in favor of the rival Blu-ray system.

Toshiba is widely expected to say it will stop producing HD DVD products, following recent Japanese media reports and comments from Toshiba officials on the condition of anonymity about an expected announcement.

I guess this will also mean then end of those 1/2 price Blu-Ray disk sales on Amazon.

Okay, now that it's over, which Blue-Ray DVD Player should I get?

The main thing is that you want to be sure your player fully supports Blu-ray v2.0. (Which the ps3 does).

For the same price as the PS3 you can get a stand alone player that fits better on a shelf and makes less noise and typically has a better remote but won't play games. Your choice.

Since I'm not a gamer, I'll likely go with a stand alone player.

Blue-Ray v2.0, check!
