Of course, the price is going to be obscene. You will probably have to pay ComCrap $5 to rent the movie ($6-$7 if it is High-Defintion). Then ComCrap will give you the option to buy the Blu-Ray movie for about $23-$24 ($6-$7 less than the standard price of $30), plus Comcast will add $5 for shipping (bringing your additional total to own the Blu-Ray up to $28-$29).

Amazon will be selling the same movie for $25 with free Super Saver Shipping. And Amazon won't have just made $2-$3 off of you because you just rented the movie.

You misspelled ComCrap in the third attempt. LOL.
