Best Buy to offer blu-ray rebate to HD DVD owners
March 20th, 2008 - Posted by Joe
The blu-ray high definition dvd format became the default standard format after rival HD DVD players were officially discontinued earlier this month. This move rendered the HD DVD players little more than $400 paperweights since no additional movie titles would be launched in the format.
Best Buy electronics stores are stepping in with a bit of a silver lining for those consumers that purchased HD DVD players from the national electronics retailer in the form of a $50 rebate. Any HD DVD players or accessories that were purchased at Best Buy prior to February 27 are eligible for the rebate. Information on the Best Buy HD DVD rebate program is available at their website.
Another major retailer, Circuit City, also announced that they will honor returns of HD DVD players purchased within the last 90 days.
Clearly both retailers are hoping that these HD DVD owners will transition to the blu-ray format now that they have had a flavor of the benefits of high def dvds.
Current and new blu-ray owners will also be able to benefit from the recent growth in blu-ray format movies available at Netflix, the popular online movie rental service.
