Yeah, the subtitles left a lot to be desired. The translation was not perfect, but not so bad you couldn't understand what was going on. I cannot compare it to the other releases as I haven't bought...

Local Best Buy stopped selling HD-DVD Players

I decided when I visited Best Buy recently to ask about HD-DVD again. The local salesguy told me that the local store had actually stopped selling the players they had (I hadn't realized that they...

Yeah, I think it is too. The salesguy was definitely in "customer service mode", nearly patted me on the head, lol.

At the very least, it was nice to know they acknowledged the format's existence....

Thanks. :) Figured as much, just reporting the e-mail I got back when I wrote asking about it. I wouldn't expect any different if I were a retailer and had to decide about what was best for my...

What will BluRay/HD-DVD discs look like?

Sorry if this has already been covered in the facts / FAQ thread, but what will BluRay and HD-DVD look like?

Question about Region 5 DVDs meant for Africa

I was curious to know if any of you have come across some of the rarer editions for DVDs such as Region 5 in Africa. I've found no e-tailer online from any of the African Region 5 countries. I am not...

I noticed this as well, a big relief since Amazon still claims they have the coding. Still looked marketed to U.S. and Canada only as the "Dubbed in Quebec" on some discs suggests. However, even...

Wow that IS a good price if shipping worldwide is truly free. I wish I'd learned about CD Wow earlier. I actually got a better price from Amazon: EUR 17.20. What killed me was the shipping though, a...

No, the player was around $100, it's a recorder as well. The disc was around $40 when you add in the lousy exchange rate and the shipping. I didn't get a good deal there, but even according to this...

You know, you're really starting to annoy me. Are you being deliberately obtuse?
