I wish the choices were better. I am on the fence deciding to wait for the 1080p prices to fall.

You also get the 10% discount if you have it. My total for the deal with three $19.95 movies is $193.01.

I am in the HD-DVD world now with this deal. Total was $190. Pretty good deal for 10 HD-DVDs and a player. My PS3 just broke, so I sold my entire Blu-ray collection (about 45 Blu-rays). I didn't feel like paying $500 for a new PS3. I wasn't going to go back to HD for a while, but deals like these are too good to pass up.

You're PS3 broke? It should still be under warranty as its only been a year since launch.

That is what I thought. I called Sony, but didn't have the receipt, so they couldn't do anything about it. I was pissed that a reciept was required when the system launched less than a year ago. They said they would fix it for $150, but that is way too much. I'm probably actually making money by selling my Blu-ray collection. I got good deals on most of the movies I own.

I made the mistake of buying my PS3 on ebay. It didn't include a reciept. I just think Sony should have the common sense to realize that my PS3 was made less than a year ago and honor their warranty.

They should at least allow you to send it in and take a look at it before they either work on it or deny your claim. It is scary to buy electronics, especially expensive ones, off of Ebay.

If you think Microsoft's customer service is bad, you can't even fathom the depths of SCEA's support. They are as bad as Nintendo's is good.

I ordered the A3. Now that my Oppo has died and I'd like to have an upconverting player again, so that need and the HD-DVD capability made this an easy trigger to pull.

Damn I already have 3 copies of "300". But I'd like to grab the players while they throw in all these discs. I know prices will continue to fall however I'm sure they'll stop including $250 worth of discs at some point. I have both the BR and HD at my apartment on Long Island and am still watching SD at home in Rochester. Boy you quickly get spoiled don't you?
