Can you really complain about BOGOs ?

Other than complaining about the damage it's causing to my wallet ?

Methinks the Retail stores are paying no more than $10 for each disk (if that much), and the studios are still making a profit on each disc sale. At $30+, I suspect the retailers are making huge profits (well, not huge because of the limited sales).

In contrast, Toshiba has been dumping A2s below cost; The A3s may or may not be profitable at the $200 price point but I'm not sure. The Wal-Mart $98 A2 sale was definitely a firesale/loss leader. I walked into Wal-Mart a couple of days ago and the A2s/A3s were listed at $298.
