Not a very smart move especially if more movies on BLU-RAY disk are selling than HD

If Kmart isn't selling BD players - it's a great move. Why keep an inventory that isn't moving???

What I got out of it, is that they WILL be selling the players. Remember if you would have read the original thread Sears owns K Mart. So it sound like they are jumping into the HD DVD world. Sounds like a sound move for a company that is trying to get back in the game. You know try to compete with Wal Mart or Target.

it's not a bad move. it doesnt say they wont be selling blu-ray discs. they will still make money off the discs and the ps3s, but will focus their stand alones on HD, which seems to be doing better. personally i think exclusives are annoying in any field. its annoying what target and blockbuster is doing, its annoying what the movie studios are doing. all of it. it's annoying when bands release an album to best buy exclusive. Remember when businesses used to at least pretend to care about the consumer.

Who cares? It's KMART! POINT MADE. The people who work and shop there probably still use VHS tapes! This is nothing that will hurt Blu-Ray, or give HD DVD fan boys/girls hope that there preferred format will win.

You know Kmart has about 1500 stores. If you don't think this is a big deal then why was Target big deal for bluray fanboys and with Wallmart selling an HD DVD player for under 200. I think the clock is ticking for bluray. Better keep buying those disc while you can.
