Is there a reason why they are not carrying titles?

I really miss tower records or somewhere you could go to find a wide variety of music and movies that is in a store and not ordered over the internet.

Well I know in the Dallas area, I hate to say it, but Fry's Electronics has a large selection of Blu-Ray discs. Just don't ask for help from a Fry's employee, if you can't find what you are looking for. Customer service sucks at Fry's, but they do have a good selection, and are cheaper then Best Buy in most cases.

I am from Madison, Alabama.
Wal-mart in Madison (only 1 title, last time I saw last week, Ghost Riders BD, locked in ps3 selection and price at 29.99)
GameStop in Madison, have few selections of BD.

Best Buy in Huntsville have most titles on both formats, not all are available. But price for Omen or Courage under Fire is $34.99.

MovieStop in Huntsville have more titles on both formats but larger selections of BD, while their price are slight higher, only two BD are at correct price as Amazon are Scooby-Doo and Vertical Limit at 19.99. In past, most of selection, it were cheaper but no longer cheaper, the price rose.
Omen or Courage Under Fire is $32.99.

Targets in Huntsville have fewest selection, 7 or less on both formats, very limit, and price are not same as amazon.com.

Suncoast, in Huntsville, Madison Square Mall, I never buy any BD or HD DVD because they run full MRSP, but not ton of selections on both formats as Best Buy and MovieStop offers.

Circuit City offer BD and HD DVD very limit selection, about 20 to 40 titles each. Not Large as MovieStop and Best Buy.

Most prefer purchase place for me are:
1. Amazon
2. MovieStop (2 dallor to 3 dallor cheap than Best Buy)
3. Best Buy

These are most selections of BD you can find in area of Huntsville, Alabama.

Best Buy have:
Courage Under Fire
Silent Hill
Under Siege
Pirates of the Caribbean
Young Guns
Basic Intsincts, and list go on.
But sometime, it not in stock. For example Planet of the Apes was only in stock at MovieStop while not in stock at Best Buy.

So, these are my primary shopping places, Amazon, Best Buy, and MovieStop.

Most of time I made purchases through Best Buy and MovieStop more than I made through Amazon. MovieStop was cheaper in Fall 2006 to March 30 2007, then after that, price rose, and I haven't brought a lot from MovieStop, but still brought some from Best Buy, and will made some prucahses from these three places: Amazon, Best Buy, and MovieStops.

It is not big issues for me because about 85% to 90% titles are available. Expect HDnet, etc.

Went to the Walmart in North Vancouver today. For the longest time, HDDVD and blu-ray has equal shelf space, now the swing to blu-ray is obvious. 4 racks for blu-rays and 2 HDDVD. The 2 shelve of HDDVD wasn't even full....I guess they may not be re-stocking.
