Anyone ever hear of the Christmas Wish Book? This is and always has been the number one catalog in North America. All you guys live in big centers where options are plentiful where do you think the other half buys their Christmas crap from? The local Kwiki-mart or the Sears Catalog with goods delivered right to your door.

This is huge news, and a tremendous boost for HD DVD.

Yeah, isn't it a riot that we have to have two or three threads going for the same topic every day! Fanboys . . . nothing but fanboys any way you look at it.

I think its very smart of KMart to go with the cheaper superior format of HD DVD. With Kmarts decision and Walmart selling the Toshiba HD DVD at 8AM on Friday Nov 2 for $98, HD DVD its on its way to winning the format war.

I thought that blu-ray had already paid k-mart for exclusivity. Did their contract end already? I thought that had happened just a few months ago. Maybe there was a clause to end the contract if they couldn't sell enough blu-ray players?
