Yes, the rattle- the sound that the movie case makes when the disc has become loose. I opened up the box (T2 for those wondering) and smiled; the disc was scratchless. There would be no need for a return or wait. I immediately popped in the movie and started watching.

I've also recently bought more used Blus because of this feature, and I no longer worry about buying used games when I don't care whether or not the publisher gets money from my purchase (EA).

Yep. It was one of the most important, yet was the least pushed factors in the war.

I'm absolutely convinced it was a key reason Blockbuster when Blu so early. They used a "for the consumer" argument to justify their move, but I believe it was really dollars and sense for there bottom line.

I notice Disney is starting to mention it more. It will be a huge factor for parents' moving to Blu.
