Apple 'swings both ways' on HD
Shock for Blu-ray as first high definition players hit UK high streets
Clive Akass,
Personal Computer World 18 Oct 2006
Apple plans to support both the rival high-definition formats
after appearing to support Blu-ray, according to a US website.
The Blu-ray camp claimed a victory last year when Apple joined
the Blu-ray Association. But the
Think
Secret site claims to have seen documents
indicating that it will offer equal support for
HD-DVD.
Hewlett-Packard already supports both formats but most
hardware companies so far have picked one or another.
The news came as Samsung launched the first Blu-ray player
into UK high streets for £999; Panasonic is about to launch one for £1,299. The
first HD-DVD player to be available in the UK is expected to launch in November
for around £500.
LG Electronics has said it is
developing
a player supporting both technologies. And
London-based NME has unveiled a £199 player
using
a third HD format based on existing DVD
technology and targeted at the Bollywood and China markets.
