Yep, right on the heels of the announcement that Blu-Ray's been trouncing HD-DVD all year long, Paramount dumps Blu-Ray completely: http://tech.monstersandcritics.com/news/article_1345772.php/HD_format_war_not_over_as_Paramount_dumps_Blu-ray
"The fight for ultimate market traction between Blu-ray and HD-DVD has often been compared to the battle Sony found itself in when it took the technically superior Betamax platform up against the cheaper VHS format.. Sony, of course, lost that battle to the cheaper option, and it’s perhaps worth noting that the Japanese electronics giant has never fared well when pushing its own formats, which have included Betamax, MiniDisc (MD), and, most recently, the Universal Media Disc (UMD)."
Guess you can consider this round 5..
