If my dvdaf count is correct, just north of fifty. I may end up with more than that as the "big" titles I haven't gotten yet and am waiting for them to drop to $10 or below: I Am Legend, Jesse James, Into the Wild, Zodiac, Batman, etc.
I wouldn't be surprised to see HD DVD titles for sale at $4 a piece before the end of the year, although it may not necessarily be titles we want. For example, there's no reason for me to get Doom, End of Days, or titles like that, even if they were free.

43. Only had 12 before the HDDVD died. Instead of sinking with the ship, I bought another boat I guess 
Grabbed a backup HDDVD Player and started bargain hunting for movies. May end up north of 50 as I wait for a few more.....

Added two more (or 6 more, if we're counting discs). I've been looking for a deal on Planet Earth (either HD-DVD or Blu-Ray), and I couldn't pass up the deal at the UK Amazon site, especially because it has a bonus disc (5 disc set compared to 4 disc US set).
~$40 shipped for Planet Earth and Shaun of the Dead on HD-DVD, I'm calling it $30 for PE and $10 for SotD. Less than half price, and a bonus disc, sucked me in. Just got it yesterday (pretty speedy shipping from the UK, ordered on the 1st and received on the 7th). Damn it looks awesome in all it's 1080p glory!

Van Helsing was the other HD DVD where I thought the picture was actually worse than the upscaled SD.
