I don't expect them to be as cheap as SD discs. I don't have a problem with CH charging $10 more for the HD version. But you can't use Funcash? Not even to get a discount? What's the reasoning behind that?

Yeah, you can use them as the B1 part, but not the G1 part. It doesn't make sense that I can use a coupon to buy Shrek 3 for $20 and get 300 for free, but I can't use the coupon to buy Shrek 3 HD for $30 and get 300 HD for free.

It's a stupid policy. I'll spend my cash at Amazon.

You can. Also, you have to remember to factor in the complete membership. A typical breakdown would look like this-

7 DVDs for $12.89(enrollment package)

2 HD-DVD titles for $59.92(fulfillment tiltes)
2 Criterions(or other expensive DVD) for FREE(the BOGO titles)

Assuming that the BOGO code included free shipping and you live in a state that CH doesn't charge tax in, the total membership would be $72.81. That's $6.62 per title(not too shabby for a Criterion or an HD-DVD).

Exactly. $73 for two HDs and two Criterions (or expensive titles) is a pretty good deal in itself, but then add in seven SD titles and .
