I would obviously prefer to watch the Blu-ray version of a film every time, but with the increased pricing and only 1 Blu-ray player in my home (in the living room), I will probably be sticking with DVD rentals for now.

We watch the majority of our films in our bedroom and we do not yet have a Blu-ray player there. So at this point, I’m waiting for Blu-ray player prices to drop & new models to be released so that I can purchase a decent priced BD-Live player that doesn’t break my bank.

Well I guess everyone wants in on the increased profits by overpricing Blu movies now that they’ve won. Let’s hope it backfires on them soon and they are forced to drop prices to a more realistic level.

Where I’m at there aren’t nearby Blockbusters, and the service was slower and didn’t have as much of a selection. This is why I am still with Netflix after 4 years.

yup, I already made the switch to blockbuster…the deal breaker was being able to return for additional movies and the fact blu-rays were well stocked at the Blockbuster just down the road.

netflix can watch their customers leave and their blu-rays will be expensive place holders.
