kre0380 said:Good deal OP for those stuck with a dusty HDDVD player and wanting to upgarde. Click on the posts with all the red to see who gave it red - those are the guys who are still angry they bought HD.
I gave it green and I have a nasty HD Player. But... I also have two Blu Rays. I make the cliff dive one week before HD started its death march. I have to admit Blu Ray is better. HD reminded me of the original DVD format too much. One smudge, scratch, etc, and freeze, pixelate, etc. So far (fingers crossed) I have played MANY BB Rental disks and not one glitch which is impressive.

Thanks

I didn't see this specifically pointed out. On the site, they say that they're taking The Departed Special edition, but as near as I can tell, there was only 1 version released for hddvd, which was the combo dvd version. Is this what they're talking about, or does someone know of another version?

Read on a Blu-ray specific board that several people called and asked about this. They say if you send in the cover art for the 3 movies you will indeed receive the Ultimate Matrix Collection on Blu.

Thanks OP. My Toshiba HA-A2 HD-DVD player died a while back and was outside the one year warranty period. Toshiba wanted $90 to ship me a refurbished unit which was just a bit less than I paid for it during the initial fire sale. I'm glad to be getting my Planet Earth HD fix again.

On the Oceans box set, I just have to return the box cover. They have similar steps on the other box sets.

This is a great deal. For those of you complaining, what have you lost? You bought HD, you still have HD. WB is offering to give you the Blu-Ray too. I am replacing eleven discs for $64.

Although Sam's Club has a modest display of blu-ray titles (and I suppose the neighboring Costco does as well) I get the distinct idea that HD and bluray both lost, one just sooner than the other. About a quarter of my spam from Amazon.com is trying to get me to buy bluray disks.

Ummm...it's not an upgrade. It's an exchange.
