Posted in Players, Retailers on February 15th, 2008 by Dave

walmart.jpgWe read over at Check Out Blog today that Wal-mart is moving to phase out HD DVD and to carry Blu-ray Discs and DVDs only.The move will be reportedly in place by June 2008.

According to the recent NPD report, Wal-mart is the third largest seller of HD Media in the USA.

Check Out Blog claims to be “Dedicated to bringing you the latest in gadgets, green, gaming, and more, Check Out is written by a group of expert Wal-Mart Associates.” - so while informal, this would seem to be a fairly official word from Wal-mart.
