yay for HD-DVD losing v.cheapmovies

1st let me say i’m not 1 to care much for format wars and all that crap. I love HD-DVD and will get a PS3 for BR etc.

That said, now that HD-DVD lost the movies are selling for cheap (well at least to the distributors) so who else here has been stocking up?

Last week bought 13movies and a tv series box set and this week between housemate and I we got another 42 movies and he grabbed a HD-DVD addon for his 360 for cheap.

all up cost us about $300
housemate works for the main distributor for the east coast, so we get them at cost price. Tomorrow Paramounts cost cuts come through so we’ll be ordered even more

haven’t really noticed any change in prices here

But DVD prices have been going down and i’ve been buying quite a few of them…the upgrade to a nice tv and disc player makes me want to buy more discs, before it was months between my dvd purchases.

i’m buying more dvds (not hd or blue ray)
mainly to complete old collections, or old movies i haven’t seen in years (or were too expensive to buy)
If I could get a 360 hd-dvd player for excessively cheap I’d grab one
I think they’re $50 or so now, but you could probably find one second hand for dirt cheap.
I’m at 32 movies (including planet earf), an hd-a3, hd-d3, and 360 addon with a total out of pocket expense of ~$190
