Is is me or has BD lowered it's pricing on movies? For the last two weeks I've gone to BB and it seems that the BD pricing on the new release movies has dropped a bit. With HD players being cheaper than BD players, maybe this is a way to attract more people to the BD camp. Either way, I'm all over the new pricing, now come on down HD.:D

    Whats the new prices you are seeing?? I don't have blue ray yet but I do have HD DVD and I think the disc prices are a bit high. All mine have been between 24.99 and 34.99

    Kinda sucks.

    I've been buying both BR and HD-DVD disks and BB and they seem like they are all the same price to me. I've paid $35 for BR disks. If anything, I think I’ve paid more for BR disks lately.

    I can say that I have analyzed every disk I have bought right out of the box. 100% of my BR disks have been flawless. 50% of my HD-DVD disks have come out of the box with scuffs and scratches on the bottom. Kinda weird.

    Got my spidey for 64 bucks not half bad including shipping over the waters. I still think those prices Grim mentioned are average, if you wanna save more then shop at Amazon. Betters prices than BB for sure, unless they have a BOGO deal as CC did. Any reviews of that Spidey 3, I really enjoyed the SQ on this one.

    It was marked $69 but it should have rang up $60, mine did anyway. BB is just including HD DVD and BD in the new release sales now, they will go up after the first week of release to there marked price.
