| Posted: | | | | Blu-ray sale: Wow, those titles disappear from the list fast. I checked the list before dinner and when I came back after dinner to take a closer look and make an order at least 3 or so titles were missing (no idea which ones, but the placement of movies had shifted) and Page 9 was definitely smaller. There will probably be only 8 pages here pretty soon.
Not quite as nice as the BOGO sales they were doing earlier, but still pretty good deals. Especially the $15 titles.
HD DVD sale: Tempting, but I'm going to hold out. There has got to be some kind of fire sale soon, most likely at the B&M stores looking to free up space then at Amazon, so I plan on taking advantage of that since I went purple. I guess I'll need to compile a list of HD DVD exclusive movies so I know which ones to get. I know they'll eventually come out in Blu-ray but why wait when I can get them now and hopefully on the cheap. | | | "Rules are for the obedience of fools and the guidance of wise men" - Douglas Bader "A common mistake that people make when trying to design something completely foolproof is to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools." - Douglas Adams |

I guess the question is: if you are going to buy a new player a few years from now, will it play HD-DVDs? | | | -- Enry |

That's a valid point, but why would I buy a new player a few years from now? Besides if my current one breaks of course. Sure, my current player is stuck at being a profile 1.1 player, but profile 2.0 doesn't offer anything I care about. I could care less about being able to access the internet while playing a movie to download a screensaver or a ring tone or even a movie trailer or something. I can't imagine blu-ray continuing to change their specs to the point where a 2 or 3 year old player would suddenly stop working. Heck, the DVD player I replaced with my HD player was almost 10 years old. | | | "Rules are for the obedience of fools and the guidance of wise men" - Douglas Bader "A common mistake that people make when trying to design something completely foolproof is to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools." - Douglas Adams |

| Posted: | | | | Even though it's not part of the sale, I noticed Full Metal Jacket was about a dollar cheaper than it was earlier this week. So I picked it up to get the final Kubrick on HD (Eyes Wide Shut, 2001 & The Shining on HD DVD and Clockwork on BD). I also picked up Memento from the sale to get the free shipping. | | | Get the CSVExport and Database Query plug-ins here. Create fake parent profiles to organize your collection. |

You missed one if you want all of Kubrick's works that are on HD.

Spartacus (HD DVD) Yes, I missed that one. It's also received mixed to negative reviews for the HD DVD. So I'm not sure if I even want to add it or not. | | | Get the CSVExport and Database Query plug-ins here. Create fake parent profiles to organize your collection. |
