    Petition to get BD-Live (profile 2.0) added to the LG BH200

    This also adds AVCHD playback that was in the April 08 firmware as well. :) Good times! I wonder if they'll ask for our $75 back?

    Red to Blu.com HDDVD UPGRADE PROGRAM

    I'm still torn if I want to do this or not. I have 3 HD DVD players, and only 2 blu-ray players (PS3, and a combo LG BH200). I'll probably end up keeping with the HD DVD versions.

    No HD DVD players at Best Buy

    Woah, news to me. I still have a collection of CEDs (video on vinyl). I wonder when they will make a comeback? haha, just kidding. Seriously tho, Best Buy actually still sells records? I know they sell like 6 players, but I didn't know they still sold records. Dang, looking on the website...

    No HD DVD players at Best Buy

    Well, was looking for an HD DVD player today at Best Buy with my stock of gift cards. I was hoping for maybe a left over open box combo unit or something, but no luck. I asked the blue shirt for an HD DVD player, and she said "blu-ray player?". I said "No, HD DVD player". She said they...

    Most Valued 10 HD DVD's in your Collection

    Well, my most watched are Caddyshack (is this out on BR yet?) 300 Rumor Has It (bad movie, not sure why I watch it so much) Superman 2 Donner Cut (cool new cut!) But really, Caddyshack has them all beat by a mile. I've watched that movie so many times, its embarrassing. :) -John

    Bluray breaks 150, Memorex for 139 on Woot

    Just for the record, they sold 4706 of the Memorex blu-ray players at 139.99 + 5.00 shipping. Not bad, but I thought they would have sold more. -John

    Blockbuster Online - anyone have it?

    Well, I emailed them about it, and here is their response: "We have encountered an error in our system which has caused the delay. Please don't worry as this issue has already been reported and we are currently working on sending your next movies by the end of the next business day. It shows...

    Blockbuster Online - anyone have it?

    OK, I guess I'll just have to get used to it. :) I've been with Netflix for a while, but had a chance to try Blockbuster again. I guess now I remember why I ended up choosing Netflix in the first place.

    Blockbuster Online - anyone have it?

    So is Blockbuster having issues this week, or is it just me? I mailed back a movie Monday, they got it Tuesday. And they still have not shipped me anything else yet. I'm on the 3-out plan, and it only shows me with 2-out.

    Did Netflix price increase include HD DVD?

    How can that be? I login, and click browse selection, and can still browse HD DVDs. I'm not a member, tho. "HD DVD Netflix carries nearly 400 HD DVDs"

    Did Netflix price increase include HD DVD?

    So does the $2/mo Blu-Ray price increase also apply to HD DVD? Just wondering, as I'm not currently a Netflix subscriber, if I reactivated my account if I would be charged extra for my HD DVDs? -John

    PS3 2.41 Coming?

    Sounds like a good update, I'll have to give it a try and cross my fingers it works. :)

    Just got a Xbox 360 today for $199

    I don't think so. Component can only handle 1080i, HDMI does 1080p. There are some exceptions, as some TV's component inputs do 1080p, but most are 1080i.

    That's the non-HDMI version of the 360, tho.

    Insignia BD Player at BBuy for $349

    Watch out using that obsolete word, you'll get panned. :) Anyways, I agree. Its not worth saving $50 and losing all that functionality that 2.0 provides and quick future upgrades that the PS3 provides. Still seems like the PS3 is the best blu-ray player out there. -John

    Funai to release Final Standard BD under $300

    Thanks for the review. I wonder if the response on the Harmony remote will be better? Sounds like what is expected of a budget player. Seems strange to connect a budget player up to a higher end audio reciever capable of decoding advanced audio, but that just my opinion. :) Bottom line...

    Funai to release Final Standard BD under $300

    This post is active, because the Magnavox players are easily found in any Walmart store for just under $300. Someone on here needs to buy one and review it so we know how well they perform. So far no one has stepped forward. This player doesn't meet my requirements, so I won't be that...

    Latest HD DVD Ordered or Bought

    I don't know why I'm still buying HD DVD, but just ordered Smokey & the Bandit and Notting Hill. Just too tempted by the prices! Gotta love Google checkout! :)

    Funai to release Final Standard BD under $300

    True, I guess. 2.0 is really more of a feature set, but ethernet firmware updates are much more convenient than burning a disc. Just look at how often the PS3 is updated. Seriously, tho. Why bother saving $100 and losing so many features that the PS3 offers (just for blu-ray playback...
