I just bought Sleepy Hollow. Amazon's pricing methods are sometimes strange, but I'll take this film for half price.

Half price 55% off sounds good to me!

This film is easily worth it for that price.

Holy cow. The Sleepy Hollow HD-DVD is now #44 of all DVDs in sales! (today)

Compare that to the regular DVD, which is in the 600s, and as far as I can tell, the best selling Blu Ray disc usually is in the top 2000 to 3000.

Gee...must be all those people who DON'T have an HD DVD player buying it up

Imagine what would happen if they were all priced this inexpensively? I wonder if the studios would even pay attention to that.

For $13.50 a pop, I'd buy every title available except The Phantom of the Opera. I hope this is a pricing experiment considering the other Paramount titles are still $29.99, it seems to be making some noise and validating that there are a good amount of HD-DVD users out there.

Yesterday marked the day that all released HD-DVD hardware outsold all other released Blu-Ray hardware and software. (The Sony BDP-S1 actually outsold the RCA and the Samsung).

Just a couple follow up notes

- My Sleepy Hollow should be here tomorrow - at the cheap price.

- I have found as others reported, Unforgiven and Blazing Saddles in my Gold Box

Update - HD-DVD is showing up more and more in my GoldBox having a hard time not wasting a ton of money. Today I had Apollo 13 and Last Samuri before I bit on Goodfellas.

FYI: I bought my HD-A1 the same time I bought my HD DVDs (Sahara & Serenity), ... so I qualify for the 10% Off for the next year making ...

Sahara & Sky Captain = $17.87 each @ Amazon.

NOTE: When I bought on Aug. 1st, Sahara was $29.99 and after the price change, I emailed Amazon & they credited me the difference (actually I think they gave me more based on the HD DVD price because my final was $16.86 for Sahara! )
