[quote name='mietha']All Sam's deals like that are store specific. They rarely ever have anything decently priced, but sometimes you can find something on the cheap. Mine just seems to get worse and worse in the gaming department though. I'm just wondering if they are ever going to get HD or Blu-Ray. DVD is so last gen.[/quote]
Well, you let me know when this whole dual format thing ends and movies I actually WANT to own start appearing on the format. After spending weeks of my time over the last decade petitioning companies to release hard to find movies ON DVD, I'm in no hurry to ditch a format that's become so open and accepted.
I mean for pete's sake, it took... 7 years just to get the SHITTY versions of Star Wars released to DVD. Lord knows how long we'll have to wait for LOTR, Indiana Jones, or SW to get released on another format...
I'm sorry, but it irks me when someone starts blathering on about DVD's being last gen when we don't even have a next gen yet. I'm not interested in buying one company or another's propriatary format just for an exclusive title. DVD, VHS, LD and even CED movies were decent formats because they ALL released titles on the single formats. DVD and DIVX was a pretty obvious choice, because no one wanted the crap "convenience" of driving to a store for a home owned rental. Since these two are almost identical technology but built on laser wave length frequency it's retarded that they split the market like this. Universal and Sony's blind thought process that their movies and technology just are THAT much better than the competition is aggravating enough to stay out of either format for awhile.
