edited: found string's thread already
Zadan, saw your post at String's thread.
The price at the Virgin MS is too expensive. Both totaling to
$122.98 not including shipping and tax.
You could almost buy them here at the same price (well, I don't see Planet Earth here anyway).
Please consider my suggestion.
You can get at Amazon much cheaper, shipped directly to your home:
Ratatouille = $23.95
Planet Earth = $54.95
DHL shipping (3-4 days) = $37.97
TOTAL =
$116.87Now you save some, and furhtermore you'll get in 4 days instead of waiting until February 26th for String to come back.
Or use standard shipping (10-30 days) = $12.97
TOTAL =
$91.87You save a lot more, and if you order today you'll probably get it by the time String come back!
OR, another much cheaper option, but risky, you can order from Amazon.com, have it to ship to String's hotel, you'll get fee shipping.
But it's risky because he will only stay at that hotel for 3 days, you must have good calculations on timing between the time you place the order, ship, and to arrive at the hotel at the time String is still there.
Using this risky option, you only pay
$78.90.
I would encourage you to have String buy the BDs in-store for you if the price is around the same (maybe little bit more) then Amazon. But if the price is too expensive, it's just not worth it.
Also check the prices at Circuit City, that is also within his hotel area.

Netflix Goes Blu-ray Exclusive» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «
Blu-ray Disc The popular online video rental service Netflix has announced that they have decided to support Blu-ray exclusively for high definition movie rentals. Pointing to the Warner Brothers exclusivity announcement as the main reason for the shift, Netflix will no longer purchase movies in the rival HD DVD format, and once the life cycle for those discs has ended, they will no longer stock the format for rent.
Ted Sarandos, chief content officer for Netflix commented, "The prolonged period of competition between two formats has prevented clear communication to the consumer regarding the richness of the high-def experience versus standard definition. We are now at the point where the industry can pursue the migration to a single format, bring clarity to the consumer and accelerate the adoption of high-def. Going forward, we expect that all of the studios will publish in the Blu-ray format and that the price points of high-def DVD players will come down significantly."
While only a small percentage of Netflix users rent high definition movies, the majority of those who do take advantage of the services are renting Blu-ray. They expect that the shift to a single format will ultimately allow Netflix to provide a better service to those high definition custome

blu-ray.com The most popular rental service in US going blu-ray exclusive? Now the HD-DUD fans has to look for other places to rent their dying format?
The future is clear friends. Paramount/Universal can't even let their movies be rented now!
