Yesterday the Irish movie Disco Pig and the Japanese anime collection Freedom: 6 were released in the United States. The two movies will be the last HD DVDs to enter the U.S. market. Although there are rumours about a possible HD DVD release of Bandai Visual's remaining episodes of Freedom Project we can expect Disco Pig to be the last page in HD DVD's dramatic book.
Probably there are still many HD DVD users after its player prices were slashed to only $100. The format had a rough start in January when Warner decided to step away from the format and slowly other studios and retailers followed. Another writer said in his article that 'sometimes nice guys do indeed finish last'.
What do you think? Was HD DVD a 'nice guy' and will this mean Disco Pig is the collector's item for you?
