Recently quite busy A bit lazy to find info.

Guys, just want to check, what does SKU means?

I think is number of item. In SKU a boxset with 5 movies will only count 1 SKU even there are 5 movies.

Just verified Saving Private Ryan, local version as well. It is the fixed sync version and is bit for bit identical to the us and uk versions.

ultimate matrix boxset now so cheap..usd44.99

those who doesnt have it, go grab it!

Now if only the local disc were cheaper than the ones from AMZ. What about the local disc packaging? Any differences? Other than the subtitles listed?


Mine arrives tomorrow from AMZ.

Amazon: Consumers Love Blu-ray, but Need Better Prices and Selection

During yesterday's Blu-Con 2010 conference in Los Angeles, Bill Carr, Amazon's Vice-president of music and video, said outright that "consumers love Blu-ray." However, he also noted that the format needs a wider title selection, and would benefit from easier Internet connectivity. Carr also mentioned pricing and bundling as factors for Blu-ray adoption.

Carr revealed that, once a consumer adopts Blu-ray, the amount that he or she spends on software increases fourfold, and spending stays high afterwards. However, Blu-ray customers still buy as much as 50% of their movies on standard-definition disc, due to Blu-ray's limited selection and price premium, Carr said.

Regarding selection, Carr explained that five years after the introduction of DVD, there were more than 20,000 titles available at retail. By comparison, there are fewer than 5,000 Blu-ray titles available today. Nowadays, Amazon carries 150,000 individual titles on DVD and just 4,000 on Blu-ray. "It will be a great day when those numbers are the same, or Blu-ray is higher."

As to price premium, according to internal Amazon data, if the Blu-ray is priced $10 higher than the same title on DVD, it may only account for "a little less than half" of sales for that title; but if the price differential is $5, then the BD could get more than 70% of the sales. If DVD and BD were to be priced equally, Blu-ray might account for 90% of Amazon sales volume.

The movies most requested on Blu-ray by Amazon customers include the Star Wars original trilogy, The Lord of the Rings trilogy (presumably the extended versions), Finding Nemo, Lawrence of Arabia, and Pulp Fiction

Perhaps it's to denote the number of items in your wishlist (assuming you saw the term at blu-ray.com)

Received email from DHL at last

exactly one week from now they just said my shipment is confirm missing

took them long enough to figure out everything

So much for priority shipping

Now wonder when Amazon going to replace for me

Alamak have to wait again

took so long to know it's missing, sad case man.
I think if you let Amazon know now, they will ship it out quite fast, but still will need to wait till next week before arriving

My case more weird, the BD that got stuck in US with no movement in tracking, was return to Amazon, got the email from Amazon a week back I think.

Really

yes really, when I saw the e-mail, i was like WTH is this, then go check the order no. LOL, it's my stuck How To Train Your Dragon

Hi, can anyone here confirm if The Pacific bluray UK version is region free?
Thank you.

TS3 combo pack just arrived!

region free according to here

Same here. I order How to train a dragon was return to Amazon and treat as undelivered and got refund for that which really sucks. About a week ago also.

That's why quite piss off with DHL....

Thanks in lot. will order the UK version since it is cheaper and same tin packing with US version.

this sucks man

I complain to Amazon and got free priority shipping from there if I order it again, so took the offer and bought How To Train Your Dragon + Ice Age Complete set

As I have said, October month was the worst shipping from DHL, I got 4 shipments either soooo delayed or it never reach me

Oh well, maybe I should complain more and get free stuff from Amazon

I never really complain them thought
