Great News: HD-DVD’s price drops
This post was published 3 years 5 months 3 days ago and its content may not be valid anymore.In other news WHO CARES! Lets see the ridiculousness of this PR move by Universal. The format was launched less than two months ago, and I think you can count on two hands how many HD-DVD players have sold.
However the six HD-DVD users can rejoice, Universal will slash the price of its entire HD DVD library to $29.95; most current releases from the studio retail for $34.95. I think if you were stupid enough to buy a HD-DVD player now you should be punished with a HIGHER price not a lower one.
stupid enough to be able to afford something that is superior to whats out now?
well… technically if you have an HD-TV and an HD-DVD player … I don’t think prices on DVD’s really affect you… although you may need to shell out some extra dough to make sure you guy your Blu-Ray player … and maybe that a UMD player for all your PSP games… and then you can get your Memory Stick out of your Sony Camera…… you know what.. hopefully you see the ironic point I am trying to raise… I wait for a standards compliant format to be released before I go buy any of that HD on a disc stuff…
and I think thats what point Dan was trying to make Mr. Nic.
I guess, the price doesnt effect me then. Fry’s sells the HD-DVD’s for 20 bucks anyways, and yes if you can afford an HD-DVD player, im sure you can afford a few extra bucks for the movies.
I want my movies in HD NOW, and ill adopt both formats. Though i want Blu-Ray to win out, since the specs are much better than DVD 1.5 (HD-DVD) im actually working on a Holiday title for HD-DVD retail release.
Bottom line, i want my movies in HD now, HD-DVD is available, i dont make 5 cents an hour thusly i dont complain about the price of technology
