HD DVD & Blu-Ray Disc Players from $219 Shipped at Amazon
Dealnews has a roundup of HD DVD & Blu-Ray Disc Players from $219 Shipped at Amazon. The Blu-Ray players come with 5 free movies (which go for $20-30 each) and the HD-DVD players come with 5 free plus 5 more free via mail-in rebate.
For anyone looking to go upscale in their movie watching, these are some of the best prices ever seen for high-def DVDs. Unfortunately, that means you have to choose a side in the format wars. Personally, I'm still wishing to see a <$500 dual-format player come out. I know the Samsung BD-UP5000 is starting to get close to that, but the LG model is still about a grand. Hopefully by this time next year cheap dual players are abundant.
I've had a Playstation 3 playing Blu-Ray movies on my 46" 1080p LCD for about a year and I must say, movies do in fact look a lot better (especially anything in the background), but I must confess with most movies I forget about how good it looks after the first five minutes.
that is called getting used to it. i got used to the best sound in the globe at the moment which is PCM which is also sad.

At least the Samsung BD-UP5000 Dual format player supports 7.1 analog out and all the current audio codecs. It makes it so I do not have to upgrade by amplifier to one with HDMI inputs. I think that make it worth the extra money but I might just be in the minority here. That also does not include the fact it is one of the few Blu-Ray Profile 1.1 players available.

There is no blu-ray player selling at $219 on Amazon as this article indicates... There is however an HD DVD selling at $219 which also comes with 10 free HD DVD movies.

Still no budget-priced 1080p HD-DVD yet.
