A lot of people have been wondering as to why are HD DVD Players still being sold or traded when the HD format has been discontinued since 2008. It is true that the HD format lost the format wars to Blu-ray but up to this day, there are still die hard HD fans who will not part with their HD players. For one thing, the quality is just as good, or even better, than Blu-ray. On top of that, getting good deals on HD DVDs is so easy. There are a lot of HD movies that are being sold at rock bottom prices that it is possible to buy all your favorite movie titles for a fraction of the price compared to Blu-ray.
