Sears flyer - "Blu Ray DVDs" - Blu-ray Forum

Perhaps the customers of Sears are completely familiar with the Blu-Ray format. So putting DVD behind it might make them take a 2nd look. It's not anything personal, it's marketing. Sears has been around for a long long time, I'm sure they know what they're doing.

Exactly...I Manage at a SEARS store....and we are not geared for tech heads and fanboys (like myself

).We are trying to bring blu-ray to the average public....so you should be thankfull for us ...not SLAMMING us.Besides I constantly see this type of "verbage" all the time in other big box store ads, and yes EVEN AT YOUR PRECIOUS BB, AND especially Citcuit City.

Note: If you want reality..... a blu-ray is a HD dvd.......a High-Definition DIGITAL VIDEO DISC.....so get over yourselves, and move on...

Yea well, how common is it to find Blu ray under the DVD category?? Too common. Can you imagine how much it must irritate those who work at an electronic store to hear someone say "Where are your Blu ray DVD's?".

It's just wording dude, not a big deal. The stores will get it right eventually. That is, unless people get too used to the term, then it'll be around forever.

I think there is a problem with you guys getting mad about stuff like this.
