That's still to much...but it's getting there. I'd still like to see a Blu-ray drive.

The price drop should have been 50 dollars, but I like the movie deal.

Wow. It amazes me just how cheap some people in America can be. I live in the UK. The HD-DVD drive cost me $260 with no movies. This is a bargain.

5 free movies? hmm... not bad. That's like $100 right there.

although I dont' watch movies that much. Can I get Sopranos Season 6 instead? Is there any info about getting a TV show of the same value instead of 5 movies?

Thanks

The five free movies are chosen from a pre-determined selection of 15. You can't select just any five movies you want.

I wouldn't expect good movies, like 300.The 5 free Blu-ray movies that you get with a PS3 suck.

Who in their right mind would want to watch "The Dukes of Hazard" in High Definition? It sucked enough on my DVD player and now they want me to watch it in HD?
