I bought the A2 for $98. I got rid of 2 of my freebie movies for $60... so I paid $38 for the player and 3 free movies. Add the 4 movies I got from CV and I got a helluva deal. I did buy The Eagles live from Melbourne for $20 though. I also bought DVE on HD DVD but it is a combo format so no loss there.

All in all I am not out a lot of money. I will keep my HD DVD player and keep renting from netflix until their supply is gone (which may be very soon). Eventually I will unhook the thing I imagine. Maybe sell it to someone with a huge collection of HD DVD's so they an have a backup player down the road.... who knows?

Eventually, I will buy a bluray player most likely. Probably sooner rather than later.
