I think a lot of people are getting carried away with how much (or how little) this will play in the big picture.

Hey, every little bit helps, friend, and it appears those purchases you made didn't help the cause of this week--I'm sad to hear that. However, I do understand that the sales of Transformers HD DUD will be extremely high...it has been close to the top of all DVD sales, not just Hi-def, since it debuted to be pre-ordered. When I heard about so many different BOGO, there was some hope that the numbers would look better than what was expected this week. But with lots of people buying early, that outlook is going down the drain in a hurry.
