Asda & High Def Discs

Not sure if this has been posted already or even if it is in all stores but have been to two of my local asda stores (wigan and leigh in the north west) and both dont have any sign of stocking any HD discs at all anymore after both of them having stock previously (in fact have bought from both of them before). Anyone elses asda displaying these signs of HD format abandonment ?

Re: Asda & High Def Discs

Sheffield still stocks them but they have been moved to a glass case at the camera counter. I guess they were being 'five finger discounted'. However, definately a Blu bias....

Re: Asda & High Def Discs

In my local they have all been moved to a very tiny section and also jumbled up with the rest of the normal DVDs, which makes no sense. Not a huge selection of Blu-ray or HD DVD either
