How long has it taken you guys to get Blu Ray titles in from Amazon? I have not purchased one with the free shipping yet?

The free shipping is (was?) via Media Mail. For my location 4 to 7 days. Like at it like this, you have done without those titles all your life, what is an extra day or two?

I placed my order first thing this morning.


The price is really low at FutureShop and BestBuy ($25-$26)

But NO stock available (other than SD DVD) in all of Canada.


...even at Amazon.ca



Same goes for The Decent


So I picked them both up from Amazon.com

... and threw in The Transporter I + II

since those are close to $35-$36 here

I can't find Crank anywhere local either, so I guess it's Amazon for me as well.

Crank got very good rating on Blu-ray so it should be a joy to watch.


While we are on the Topic of ranking it seems that Blu-ray has surpassed HD-DVD in sales.

Top 10 BD: 590, HD: 737

Top 25 BD: 1,285, HD: 1,520

Top 50 BD: 2,405, HD: 2,567

Top 100 BD: 4,673 HD: 5,118


Combined figures,


Top 10 BD 6: 355, HD 4: 415

Top 25 BD 15(!): 782, HD 10: 737

Top 50 BD 26: 1,332, HD 24: 1,478

Top 100 BD 51: 2,449, HD 49: 2,519

Top 250 BD 127: 6,342, HD 123: 6,472

All BD 178(!): 11,004, HD 162: 11,163

There is a lot of momentum going Blu-ray's way right now, I can only imagine how overwelming this momentum will be in 60 days or so.

For me it's depended on where it was shipped from.

If it was Dallas I got it in 2 days, from the east coast 4-5 days.

Correct. After next week, there are only 7 HD-DVD movie titles coming through the end of February (3 exclusive) and that's it. Blu-Ray has 35 movie titles coming in the same period (30 Blu-ray exclusive)

I believe this makes Crank the first HD movie in either format to break the Top 100 at Amazon. Congratulations Crank. Congratulations Blu-ray. Congratulations Beatboy on your 1000 post.
