Microsoft to stop making HD DVD players for Xbox

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Microsoft Corp (MSFT.O: Quote, Profile, Research) will stop making video players based on the HD DVD standard for its Xbox 360 game system, a move that comes days after Toshiba Corp (6502.T: Quote, Profile, Research) pulled the plug on the high definition movie technology.

I hope they replace it with an affordable blu-ray player. I would love to be able to play blu-ray through my 360.

On the other hand.. they probably just won't sell anytrhing to replace it. That's how my luck is anyway.

xbox systems have lost money always.

What replacement is a good question...
