An email brought to my attention.

I guess it is now the time for the final word

"Effective December 15, 2008, we will no longer carry HD DVDs. At that time, we will automatically replace any HD DVD titles in your Queue with standard DVDs when available. You don't have to do anything.

Last February, we announced that since most of the major movie studios had decided to release their high-def movies exclusively in Blu-ray, we were going exclusively Blu-ray as well and would be phasing out our HD DVDs.

We're sorry for any inconvenience. If you have any questions or need further assistance, please call us at 1-888-638-3549.

- The Netflix Team"

I wonder if they'll be selling off the HD-DVD titles.

I know that someone reported on here that they picked up some HD DVD's at Wal Mart's $5 bin, but other than that, what has happened to all of the HD DVD's?
Maybe thet will start showing up at the Big Lots close out store. Or maybe they just destroyed them like someone said on here earlier this year.

Fry's Electronics (about 2 dozen stores in various states, mainly California and Texas) has 'em every week for around $7 to $12 (depending on the title). Canada's INET VIDEO has some for only $1.99 (and up), + shipping. I've ordered from them a few times - received quickly (I live in the Houston TX area). Inet is a major dealer in Canada, and has lots of inventory to move (they also have discounted BDs and DVDs too).
