Yes it had. The last 7 days has been like dominos. Walmart dropped it. Netflix dropped it. Bestbuy dropped it. Then today Toshiba said it was stopping everything to do with it.

I wonder how long it will be, before we see blu-ray as a standered pc drive, or will dvd stay standered for a while as the discs are still cheap and so or the drives, and unless you edit films or do backups (as in a business) dvd may be more than enough for most users.

A month or two then everybody, by law, will have to take out their
old PC DVD drives and put in Blu-ray drives/recorders.
