indeed....in the local stores...BD here are retailing at 27euro to 33euro....majority is at 29euro.

as for PS3 games....new releases at 60-75euro....

by the way...Pioneer just announced the 16 layers 400GB Blu Ray disc.......hmmm.....how soon our BD would be obsolete eh?

this should be available to the mass by 2010...not too far in the future.

hey terranova, how is the price in samsuipo compared to those shops in mongkok and causeway bay?

amazon has limited HK movies on the selection list......HKD10 difference probably doesnt justify the trip.....

thanks for the info.

jep.....i prefer godfather II to godfather I...an exception to the rule..hehe

of course there are some titles which has different content comparing btwn the 2 different regions....

some differences in content even within Region B releases...depending on which country...although they might be quite irrelevant...e.g. certain language audio tracks....

think that is just one incident where quality in AQ suffered in region B release...though i have not experienced that myself.

have to say....IMO, Journey to the center of the earth..story-wise is far inferior than polar express

remember to watch it again with the 'in the field with Easy company' special feature on. you can scroll forward to those markers to reveal some quite informative stuffs.

movietyme ship their BDs from US.

saw on some auction sites, people are selling off their TDK already.....some of them have multiple copies..

i think in 2 weeks' time, these sites will be flooded with used but almost new TDK at a steal.

terranova...did you go for the IT stuffs sale in ssp ?

i only saw pictures showing sea of people......wonder if the prices are really worth the trouble

i found cheapest BD-R, 25GB, 2x, Verbatim for about RM35 each

but this is in a pack of 5.....so the 5-pack price is RM35x5.....

maybe pirated BD is a good thing....should bring down the price of the originals....hehehe

i like the following..it all depend on your taste...

celine dion's new day
chicago+earth wind and fire
tony bennett's An American Classic...not exactly concert...
manilow live
Tsai Chin 2007 Concert and Golden Voice Concert hall

would be nice to get some of the other HK concert BD...like David Lui and there's this Sony Fair Concert of assorted artists.

OOP? out of production?

it was still available this morning for GBP15

anyway i ordered this from play.com...they still have them

think i saw on the comments on amazon abt the batpod figurine.....that it is really small....abt 3 to 4in....that's like 10cm....wtf.....

if not mistaken the region B release of TDK doesnt have the digital copy....will verify it later today....

for those who need the confirmation on region coding for UK release of TDK...
from dvdtimes.co.uk

"The Dark Knight is released on Blu-ray in the UK by Warner Bros as a two-disc set. The film is presented on BD50 disc with a 1080p encode, while the extra features on disc 2 are also presented in HD. The set is not region coded."
