Did I miss something with HD-DVD & Amazon?

I don't know, $1 is a pretty good price for a boat anchor ...

OK, so maybe I made a mistake by posting this thread. I didn't mean for this to promote any HD-DUD sales on amazon, I just wanted to find out what was going on with the sales. Why would anyone want that "crimson crap" anyway? Maybe this should just be closed down.

P.S. Doesn't Amazon have a PS3 +8 deal? I think I saw that somewhere. (Post from BigB88)

Nope, I don't think you'd want a boat anchor for $1 when you knew it couldn't even be used for a boat anchor in the future. In other words, your paying $1 for NOTHING.

All this tells me is HD-dud has less of a selection so more sales of the same titles, but overall its blu-ray who leads in total sales of a bigger selection.
No big deal, and no suprise.
