If thats not proof of a fire sale, I don't know what is.
I'm sorry, but retailers are moving this stuff out fast and cheap. You can't tell me that Amazon, Best, C City, ect don't see the writing on the wall.
I have not invested in either format nor do I really care who wins (and now clearly winning) I will buy when all the studios make the movies in one format.
Seriously - both formats have been coming hard and heavy with the promotions since they launched. The only thing they prove is that HDM in general is struggling for meaningful adoption.
