As a result of Toshiba finally conceding defeat regarding HD-DVD (today):

"work has stopped on CBS and Paramount's Star Trek: The Original Series Remastered - Season Two HD-DVD release. They're saying that Toshiba was financing the production as part of an exclusive arrangement to have the title on HD-DVD only, and they've now pulled the plug."

Doesn't CBS have enough money to do this by themselves? The first season sold very well, so they should know they are going to get their money back. How stupid are they?

Speaking of stupid, Paramount/CBS wants $100 for the second season DVD set on STANDARD DVD. I'd pay more for high definition, but who sells $100 sets anymore? Who buys them?
