The reign of DIVX is coming back to haunt us as EZ-D, Disney's self-distructing DVDs, are now available for pre-order at amazon.com.

I really hope no one is stupid enough to buy this crap.

Your link doesn't work! Let me try to help you:

Yeah, I am disappointed to see that Amazon would be foolish enough to enter into this market! I don't expect that they will be in it for very long though. Probably THE MOUSE (through Buena Vista) is paying them to sell the stupid things!

And, the price - selling them at the full list price of $6.99 just so somebody will not have to return something to the rental shop. DUH!!

Hmmm, after posting and clicking on my link - it too doesn't work!!
Well, here is the page, if you want to copy & paste it into a new browser window!

S**t, even that doesn't work - is this link working for anybody else?

Why not just buy the regular dvd. Looking through the ones they have listed on Amazon it looks like many of them are only a few dollars more for a normal version.

Just search for "EZ-D" in the DVD category to get the list. I think Netflix is a much better route at those prices (STL, if it works, would only get you .70 off, too). I might think it would be nice as a freebie for a large DVD order (like the "24" Season 2 2-episode disc I got).

can i just ask....WAT does EZ-D mean?....

It's a disposable DVD. Once you open the package, it's playable for two days, after which a chemical reaction occurs in the disc and it becomes unreadable.

Disney thought this'd do better than rentals.

They were wrong.

Look up "Disposable DVDs" on this site. It's hilarious.

I'm gonna buy "Gone in 60 Seconds" for my dead format collection. I'll put it right next to my DIVX discs of Armageddon, 48 Hrs. (get it?) and Tomorrow Never Dies.

why on earth would u buy a disposable dvd? isnt it a total waste of money? ....

Heheheh

They could have at least made them interesting and have them explode after 48 hours.

EZ-D = EaZily-Dead on arrival?

disposable dvds. yuck.

Isn't the whole point of EZ-D to be an impulse item that you don't have to return for people who ususually rent titles?

While I don't think the extra $3 will be enough incentive to warrant not making that return trip to the video store, how in the world do they expect to market a movie that costs that much (not to mention shipping!) that people not only get to watch for only two days, but for which they also have to wait a week or so.

Still, I may pick up one of these just to have a collector's item.

And to try out my power sander on the bottom to wear away that thin layer of chemical-infused plastic.
