A lot of HD-DVDs are $9.95 @ DStore due to this week's announcement by Toshiba. It's a good time for HD-DVD owners if they want to stock up on movies.
Combine it with $1 shipping (http://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/3208) and you've got a pretty good deal considering HD-DVD were about $30-$50 last week!
Really? "JetStar Promo Feb 08 - AU $10.00 Voucher: available against orders over AU $40.00 - expires 7-Mar-2008 - can not be used with any other offer". Hmm???
Thats what I did!!!! $0.95 for Apollo 13 on HD DVD.
And guess what?? I haven't got a HD DVD player. HAHAHA
With Toshiba withdrawing from HD DVD, it will be very difficult to buy a player soon. A $0.99 frisbee?! :)
scotty… that's a 95c frisbee! =p
Apparently LG will press on with HD DVD.
Rather than completely scrap its already- or near-complete combo player hardware, LG likely sees it as more logical to continue the manufacture and sales of its dual-format players until the end of its product lifecycle.
Excellent to hear
Ok guys, now we just have to wait for the cheap HD-DVD drives :)
You know what, I believe some random company will make a Blu ray and HD DVD player in one
I believe that Samsung has one too!
Nice, pity they do this before losing the format war!! :p
If you already have an HD-DVD drive this is a winner, but if you don't it's probably not so hot.
This is the best, I just bought 3 HD DVD for $0.95 each, I used the $10 voucher
Im just gonna wait for a cheap time to buy a dual format player.
If worst comes to worst, I wasted $2.85. LOL
BTW, how much is a dual format player in retail stores in sydney?
which movies did you get? there are some really good ones that are still like $30 in DVD format!
Looks like quite a few are now on back order and will not ship.
I got: Bourne Identity, Bourne Supremecy and Apollo 13. But when I ordered supremecy it was on back order

apparently, theyre selling them as upscaling dvd players now!
Wow, if you go and look at the avaliable HD DVD left at dstore, theres like 6 left priced at $9.95
Unfortunately, dStore have changed all the vouchers so that you can only use them for orders over $40, and you can't use them together. So I guess if you'd already got the vouchers before, it's a bargain.
If you just signed up today and claimed the vouchers. Bad luck.
That's bad news.
like buying betamax when vhs was popular.
Yes at $0.95 a pop and a high chance a dual format player will be dropping in price
its more like… buying a extremely cheap betamax video for your betamax video player. so i dont think a negative vote was warranted.
wooooot i got 2 HD DVDS rambo and knocked up for 90cents including postage hahaha
used my tiger+jetstar voucher $20 freeeeeeeee
GOD I LOVE DSTORE AND ITS FREE STUFF, JUST LOVE IT!!!!
Anothre thing, combine with the Jetstar $10 voucher and you'll get it for $0.95!!
