Default "Blindbuy" Definition

I've heard so many definitions for "blindbuy". Could anyone clearify the true meaning behind it?

Purchasing a movie without having previously seen it.

And here I am sitting thinking it always meant to stick your hand down the bargain bin and buying the first title you have in your hand!!

I thought it was when you but a blindfold on, then spin 3 times and purchase the first disc you touch.

I assumed everyone knew that a blindbuy was purchasing a movie without seeing it.

I thought it was when Stevie Wonder accidentally buys a Blu Ray disc because the guys working at the store played a practical joke on him (although I know the audio on Blu is a lot better ! A real joke would be getting him to buy an HD DVD!)
