Nope just 85. Glad you've proved how well your reading skills are though.

This thread kind of had a very fast crash and burn into negativity, but I have to agree with JasonS, that the thread title is inaccurate. In fact, if anything Amazon and other online retailers will probably be the last remaining places to pay equal attention to both formats as they don't have brick and mortar stores to worry about. All they are doing is being honest with customers, and yes, there is already a thread about this topic.

You have a PM...

If Amazon doesn't support Blu and just wants to dump HD-DVD inventory, then why make this statement at the top of a major HD-DVD title?

Just saying "85 titles" isn't evidence. Actions speak louder than words.

Huh?

olarmy96 · 01-26-2008, 05:03 AM

You have the same title count as JasonS. The post was directed to him and his childish crying and cursing.

Not worried about the title, myself...when Mods get a chance, can we get this thread moved here:

Sorry, but it was started a few hours ago...

Obviously, you haven't studied journalism or marketing. The lead and title makes all the difference. That thread doesn't have much pop.

You know something, everytime I've seen you on here, you've done nothing but want to fight with people and it really gets old. If you want to continue fighting with posters, I'll be glad to bring a mod in here and you can argue with them...I'm not on your side nor am I against you, I just want it moved to the other because it was reported earlier on that thread and it keep things from being complicated.

Now, if you want to get into marketing or journalism, I'll be glad to go one-on-one in that perspective too. As it appears from your title, "Amazon supports Blu-ray", you are correct, because they have been actually supporting Blu-ray for some time. They have been selling them for a long time, so that's good enough for support. Your title has no bearing on anything, because you are stating something that is already common knowledge--they do support Blu-ray in some form or fashion.

However, since you seem to want me to get into the discussion, I'll comment on the discussion itself. The line they put on the Warner HD DVDs is just a heads-up for the consumers who are thinking about buying said HD DVDs. In other words, they are saying, "Get them while we still have them." This is another marketing strategy. Also, they don't want consumers to blame them for not giving them ALL the information needed to make an educated decision on Hi-def media.

the hddud is going to die very soon now....in the end of the year universal and paramount is going to realese bluray titles....

I would think that those a little less...zealous would see that this is a good marketing way to try and get people to buy those titles.
After all there is a list of Warner titles that will no longer be available included there for a reason.
There is a saying somewhere about counting eggs before they are hatched though I have some reason a saying about falling on deaf ears probably applies too...

So HD-DVD has a chance to get them before they are gone

i.e. Paramount titles
