Possible upcoming discount on Snow White Blu-ray

Over at jimhillmedia.com, an article on recent internet domain names that have been registered by the Walt Disney Co. featured the following:

"...And if you’re balking at paying top dollar for the new Blu-ray version of "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs,” you might want to keep an eye on these four domain names:

SNOWWHITELOWPRICE.COM
SNOWWHITESAVE10.COM
SNOWWHITECOUPON.COM
SNOWWHITEOFFER.COM

Which suggest that Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment is readying an extensive rebate program for this new DVD release."

-- If you plan on getting this, you may want to keep an eye out for possible discount/rebate.

Your point?
This article is just giving a heads up that Disney will more than likely be offering $10 discount manufacturer's coupons for this, as they did earlier this year with titles on BD such as BOLT and BEDTIME STORIES....

Haha I know, I would've said the same thing. It's not like this has been out for months.

Apparently the original poster edited his message. therefore your post looks incredibly random, as the original post no longer says "if you have not picked it up yet"....

Quoting the OP in your reply would have made your post a little more clear.

Disney loves to gobble up domain names. Every month there's a huge list of domains they've grabbed. I wonder how many domains they own, and how many they've actually used.

I frequent many Disney forums and anyone else here who does knows not to believe much from Jim Hill. He's known for reporting Disney rumors that rarely seem to happen.

I don't think Jim makes stuff up. He just reports a lot of rumors and hearsay. Anyone that follows Disney knows that nothing is ever written in stone until it actually happens.

The best part of Jim's site are the old, lengthy articles about Disney park concepts. He hasn't been doing much of those lately.

My guess is that Disney picks up the most obvious names that scammers will use to sell counterfeits. The scammers even go so far to do text google ads and their names sound legit.

I believe Disney owns those kinds of variations on many of their bigger titles.
