Coordinated HD-DVD purchase...


As suggested by our very own Tommy, we will participate, although no doubt in a much smaller effort, in the HD-DVD power purchase day.

AVS has started a thread here... quoting from this thread:

Quote:
The idea is to show support for HD DVD by buying movies on a specific day. T here is no better way to show support for HD DVD than by backing it financially. That is the language the movie studios understand best. If there is a strong demand for HD DVD software, then hopefully Blu-ray only studios will at least go neutral.
The date set to order up HD-DVD's is August 8th. I plan to participate at Amazon (www.amazon.com), because I get the 10% discount since I've already purchased 3 titles.

As of this posting, AVS had 98 particpants listed in their thread.

Some titles ordered may be pre-orders. If you would like to particpate, please post here and we'll add you to the list. Again, I know we may not have that many people with HD players, but however many we can muster up will help, even if it's only a couple.

1. Sonnie (The Italian Job, Animal House, Aeon Flux)
2. AverageJoe (Backdraft, U-571, Lethal Weapon)
3. bobqpsr (Ray, Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, Four Brothers, Aeon Flux, Italian Job)
4. Tommy (6 titles)
5. ???
