In Reply to: RE: Lower Priced Players On HD DVD Side Hasn't Helped posted by Robertc88 on November 02, 2007 at 05:51:59
Count me in on that one. I bought one for myself (insurance policy and maybe muck around with PIP/IME or a giveaway present) and another for sister. At that price, you can't lose. Good thing the store ran out; I don't know how many I might have been tempted to buy.
A handful of mostly Universal movies at $14.96. "12 Monkees" was the only one I might have been interested in but I'll want to read the reviews. Universal has been known for mediocre releases. Also, lack of lossless audio is a hindrance.
Now to figure out how to get in on that 5 free movie deal....
Follow Ups:
.
The 5 free by mail rebate was extended thru 02/28/08.
Perhaps maybe it ended for the A2 though I'm not sure that is the case either.
the five movie deal that Toshiba offered with purchase eneded oct 31.
If people are waiting until Xmas to give them, then software sales won't show much of anything in the way of increase until early next year. Of course, if people are giving them now, there may be a slight increase.
We'll see.

It's not enough to dump HD DVD standalone players into the market; you have to demonstrate HD DVD software sales to the studios.
Even though it wasn't on sale. I'm sure lots of people are buying 1 or 2 discs. It won't take much to make a reasonable boost, since the numbers are so low to start with. Since Walmart doesn't participate in the Videoscan/Neilson numbers, we will probably never know, but the studios will.
