EDIT: FIXED! Prices are now discounting! Thanks!
Several HD DVD titles are NOT being discounted.
DISTURBIA
BLADES OF GLORY
SCENT OF A WOMAN
LAST STARFIGHTER
BILLY MADISON
As well, the already discounted Paramount titles are going back up in price when put in your CART from ~$17 to $20.95 when in cart, not including coupon. When using SEARCH they are at the $17 price, but on the HD DVD page that lists all the titles they are back up to their normal price. I can live with that sale NOT being included since it was suppose to have ended a while ago.
However, the other titles NOT discounting is some sort of SCREWUP since they are NOT pre-orders.

i think the issue is the individual titles that the discount is not being applied to, not a store credit issue. i had three HD DVDs in my cart (two of them the recent Kubrick's) and have some store credit. when i applied the coupon, the price for one of the HD DVDs was adjusted in my cart, but not the other two.
the total difference in price was different than 20% of my remaining total after store credit, so it's not the store credit that's the issue, but the already known problem of certain titles not being discounted.

$15.72 What Dreams May Come [HD-DVD] (Used)
$15.72 Sky Captain And The World Of Tomorrow [HD-DVD] (Used)
$20.26 Dirty Dozen, The [HD-DVD]

$51.70
-??.?? ($5 "frequent shopper" credit, 20% off coupon)
-----
$40.06
Weird.... the two used titles listed for $15.72. The new one was $20.26. Before any discounts, it should have been $51.70. I used a $5 store credit and 20% off, but regardless of the order I apply them I can't get $40.06...
$51.70 - $5.00 = $46.70 - 20% ($9.34) = $37.36
$51.70 - 20% ($10.34) = $41.36 - $5.00 = $36.36
I think I got shorted $3 or $4 of my $5 credit. Still, a good deal overall, but it was a bummer to burn 200 points for a buck or two.

Is this code valid using Google Checkout? I tried using the code on Sopranos S6pt2 HD-DVD but got an invalid coupon code error.
Nevermind...got the code working fine with normal checkout..so guess you can't use google checkout.

I decided to use DVDPlanet instead of DD because:
- They had the Bikers From Hell set and DD doesn't even offer it.
- DD raised the prices on the Media Blasters sets last week (not related to a sale ending)
- I can accumulate frequent buyer points (of course, in the end I spent more than I planned)
