^^ Wow. That's a lot of "special" and "perfect" players being sold off left and right, isn't it?

matthewrounds · 06-23-2007, 10:54 PM

I sold my HD - DVD XBOX 360 add on on Monday as soon as I heard the news. The writing is on the wall.

This weekend I am in the process of going through my DVD's to determine which ones to sell and which ones to keep as I now feel comfortable that the format war is over, and I can re-buy many of my titles in BD.

That's what you usually do with s$%t, you dump it off.

Esox50 · 06-23-2007, 11:15 PM

Let me guess...nobody over at AVMS is selling off though?

The Don · 06-23-2007, 11:30 PM

they better start allowing purchases under 199.99 to be able to sell their player...

I do admit...it's awfully tempting to buy one if I were to get Troy and batman Begins with it...

this way I wouldn't be supporting any sales...just a player that someone bought...

thankfully Batman Begins will be a BD title soon enough anyways....and I don't know who puts out Troy..

Looks like Warner is the distributor of Troy

I'm sure we'll see it eventually...

...and enabling someone to buy a new BD player and some new BD discs.

Then when Batman Begins and Troy are released on BD, you can send them to Amir c/o Microsoft with a little note that you won't be needing them anymore.

And of course post the video here of you driving your car over the HD DVD player...

Well, it's a tough sell. Nobody wants to get on a sinking ship.

jbuttler007 · 06-24-2007, 12:21 AM

I should buy some of those players then trash them so they'll be off the market sooner rather than later.

Supply is significantly above demand. Wait until even more current HD-DVD player owners wise up & decide to dump their HD-DVD players and prices will plunge even more.

LOL. Exact same thought crossed my mind..

desmond · 06-24-2007, 12:28 AM

this is just the beginning, also look for huge quantities of discs to come on the block. this will definitely have an impact on new player sales.

jcdDigix · 06-24-2007, 12:37 AM

If I had one I would just trash it. I think the owners were mis-educated about that format, that's why I feel sorry for some!

Slackr89 · 06-24-2007, 12:39 AM

i just did a basic search of HD DVD players being sold vs Blu-ray and it show up 241 for HD DVD and 79 for Blu-ray.

Its clear which ones are being dumped. RIP HD DVD

DrinkMore · 06-24-2007, 01:01 AM

I wish somone would buy one - trash it - film it - YOUTUBE it - and say "Sponsored By Blu-ray.com"

EDIT: Check out the search for "blu-ray player" on ebay.

Nah, let the "bigger fool" process work itself out with its attendant downward spiral in prices.
