PPS. If you want cheap movies, buy it from Amazon.com (not .ca). You pay for it US $$, You don't have to pay Tax, there are no brokerage/custom fees as its shipped from within the Canada (Mississauga) and they are about 20%-30% cheaper than buying them in Canada.
They also have lots of BOGO sales (buy one get one free). I believe that BD and HD DVD have BOGO sales on right now. |
they did have that but it expired. i saw that BOGO advertised on highdefdigest.com

But Jay, why buy now? What if your BluRay ends up like Beta? |
i saw a graph somewhere online and more than half the market is already blu-ray. if BD goes extinct then i will get an HD-DVD player as well since they are cheaper anyway.
for all the porn lovers out there, digital playground has officially gone blu-ray as well. |

pshh..you and you people trying to support the local economy! :stongue:
But yeah, the price disparity between Canada & US for HD videos has drastically come down this year!
I first adpoted to the HD format last year and it was rediculous how much more movies were here than the US.
Also, try looking at Wal-Mart for stuff. The people that work there aren't the brightest and I've seen many times where they've put the HD movies at the SD DVD price. |

I find that their shipping is very inaccurate.
I've boughten stuff that said it would take 3 weeks to ship, and it took 3 weeks to ship.
I've boughten other things that said it would take 3 weeks to ship, and it took 4 business days to ship.
I've pre-ordered movies before (Knocked Up HD DVD to be specific). Movies are released on tuesdays, and it was in my mailbox on the same friday. |

Why do you guys call it going 'red' or 'purple' if they both use blue laser diodes?

Wait, Blue Planet is a 7 part documentary, how did it only come to $19.95? I would cost them more than that just to print the damn things.
T2 for $14 on blu-ray, totally worth it!!!
