    $8 for a dead format, no thanks.
    If...
    Ron dislikes a film = go out and buy it.
    Ron loves a film = don't even rent.

    Yeah, I was thinking the exact same thing; but I also though that if I had a large enough collection of them it might be nice. I wouldn't do it though; but there are those that might, especially since the XBOX 360's HD-DVD attachment unit is only $40 there as well.

    If you have a player and want the title-who cares if its a so-called dead format? Its still HD. And just because HD-DVD lost the war did not mean that it was inferior to BR. And at a fraction of the cost of BR right now for some titles. How many $8 BR titles are out there-
    Heck $8 is cheaper than some SD titles.
    I rather watch an $8 HD-DVD title than pay $7 or whatever the cost is for a VOD from the cable company with no extras and only 24 hours to watch.

    I've amassed a huge collection of desired HD-DVD titles-most of them less than $11 ea NEW.

    The only bummer with HD-DVD right now is that nothing new will be coming out on it-but again if there is somethgin that you desire and either dont have a BR player yet or don't want to pay the top dollar for a BR version...I say go for it.
