Hidefster: Finally, some good news for HD-DVD! The Financial Times reports that HD-DVD appears to be winning the HDTV DVD format war overseas, thanks in large part to independent films.
Several European independent film studios and production companies (Studio Canal, Pathe, Filmax, Imagion, Nixbu) are supporting Toshiba’s HD-DVD over Sony’s Blu-ray, so to watch their favorite indie and big-title films in HDTV, European high-def lovers need HD-DVD players.
