@ DrXym,
Why would the content need to be ripped off the disc? They will play on the player just fine if you hook the it up to a 360 or a PC, right? That is how that works. Did you know that? And just because the free movie offer ends at the end of the month, that is supposed to mean that HD DVD is dead after that? How so? Even if the 5 free movie offer does end, you still get 300 (for the time being anyway) and Bourne Identity. Buy a standalone Blu-ray player with 2 movies, and you're spending $300+. How is that a better deal than $120-$150 for an HD player with 2 movies? Where did you learn your math? And how the hell is this a "firesale" when a player goes on sale for a few hours? Blue-ray was giving them away a few weeks ago for free if you bought a TV, and the Blu-boys all thought that was just a good sale, but Toshiba has a sale and it's the end of the format. How does this work? I'm confused. Oh, I get it. You're just spreading your fanboy FUD around. My bad. Here I was trying to use logic with you. That won't work...
