HD DVDs vanishing from Best Buy stores {Engadget HD}

Mar 26th 2008 11:45PM Fill me in on how that's a waste of money. 1.) Extends the life of my XBOX 360, 2.) I now have 6 of my favorite movies available in HD to watch for the rest of my life, plus what I mentioned above. To me that's worth a measely $49.

HD DVDs vanishing from Best Buy stores {Engadget HD}

Mar 26th 2008 11:25PM I hadn't jumped on the HD DVD wagon until Microsoft's XBOX 360 HD DVD Player dropped to $49. To me it was a heck of a deal even though the HD DVD format lost out to Blu-ray. ($49 = HD DVD Player, Alternative Drive for my 360 to use instead of burning up my main drive watching movies, 1 Free Movie - King Kong HD, Media Center remote & 5 Free HD DVD's thanks to the Toshiba rebat.)

I looked at Best Buy for HD DVD movies to stock up before they were extinct. However Amazon had a heck of a better deal at an average of 52% off normal price. I picked of the Discovery Channel's HD DVD version of Planet Earth for $25 brand new (normally $79). Just placed an order for DVE: HD Basics on HD DVD which the guys over at Guide to New Home Theater (http://www.guidetohometheater.com/testtools/308dve/) rated slightly better than the Blu-ray version.

I'm new to HD DVD...will buy Blu-ray once the players drop in price. Have two HD TV's at home...so life is good.
