If someone gave you a HD DVD player for christmas... - Blu-ray Forum

honestly. I would first look at them and say ''who are you? are you new?'' then i'd slap them. but I would keep it. I would RENT the few movies i'd like to see then put it away for many years. then sell it as a collectors item on ebay like I did with my parent's old super betamax player. I do like the pouring water in it idea though.

I'd keep it and put it next to my Laserdisc. Get some particularly unusual titles, maybe.

I'd use it as a nice bathroom stool. Or maybe to put drinks on to protect the wood table. I could also use it as the weapon of choice if anyone ever broke in to my apartment

ROFL, Exactly my thinking. I would then return it and buy BD movies and PS3 games.
