Another format war in the early [=2000's=] saw Platform/BluRay emerge victorious as the Platform/HighDefinition home video format. In 2004, Creator/{{Disney}} became one of the first studios to announce their support of the format over Toshiba's HD DVD.[[labelnote:Blu-ray]](commissioned by the Blu-ray Disc Association, which consists of Sony (the primary maker and Disney semi-ally), Pioneer and Philips (who'd both helped developed [=LaserDisc=]), Hitachi, LG (Lucky-Goldstar) Electronics, Panasonic, Samsung Electronics, Sharp, and Thomson/Technicolor SA)[[/labelnote]]. During the brief period of 2006-2008 when HD DVD and Blu-ray both existed, Creator/{{Paramount}} was the first studio to release titles on both formats -- but only for about a year before announcing they would exclusively support HD DVD. They were one of the only supporters; other studios soon dropped HD DVD and Toshiba stopped manufacturing the players in 2008.
