Have you looked at the prices on Amazon? Combos and multidiscs cost more obviously, but your basic HD DVDs list on amazon for $20. Their normal price is 33% off list, plus since I bought 3 discs at once one time back in 2006, I get an extra 10% off all HD DVDs and BDs (this expires at the end of 2007). That brings it down to $18. Bd seems to be priced a couple bucks higher. I have Amazon prime, so I get second day shipping more or less free now. My point wasn't to brag that I get 43% off list, but that if Amazon can sell the discs at that price, other stores probably could get close, if they choose to. You know when Wally World gets into the game, they'll negotiate even better prices.

Edit: I do tend to buy more catalog titles than new releases. I don't really have much interest in most of the newer releases.

I'm not trying to be combative, but I was just looking today and I can't find anything less that $19.95 on Amazon unless you're buying used. Okay, I understand the membership discounts, and the super saver discounts, but the fact is they're not normally going to be "18.00". I agree about Wally World, I was just on Bluray.com and there's are many threads about how they wouldn't shop Walmart, but I bet when they have the best prices they'll sure be shopping there. I've bought a couple new releases from them because they were the cheapest at the time. I've don't have that much pride....lol - Hey, If I can get some BR's for $18 I'm there, but you still have to figure in shipping MOST of the time...Let me know you find other HOT pricing. Best,

  www.deepdiscount.com is having a 20% off sale. Use code DVDTALK or SUPERSALE. I haven't checked recently, but I've used them in the past, the sales are OK.
  Enjoy,

      I'm not sure how long it will last. This means we should look for an announcement in the next few weeks about how well Blu-ray discs are selling.
