Blockbuster only stock bluray? FAKE. LIE!

[HotDog-Cart]

I just went to 5 different block busters in ontario. And I'm planning on going to more.

The simple question I asked (After asking for the manager of the store) was:

"Is it true? Are you guys really going to stop stocking HD DVD and just stock Blu-Ray?"

Managers respone: "No, we are continuing to stock both HD DVD and Blu-Ray. Who told you that blockbuster isnt stocking HD DVD anymore?"

My response: "The internet. Its all over google and everything"

Managers respone: "Well, we are not. So that "rumour" is fake."

(Only one store said rumour, but the others basically told me that "The internets lying".)

There ya have it. Sometime soon, I'm going to phone the manager of blockbuster in my town, and ask her if I can film inside her store. So I'll get it all on tape. Just to prove it, if my word isnt enough.

I believe they said that stores stocking both formats would continue to do so for now, but ones that hadn't started using HD formats yet would only get Blu-ray in the future. I could be wrong though.

that is quite correct. None of the blockbusters in my area are stocking HDdvd.

All the ones in my area are. SCORE

Oh Oh. Some like 50 year old guy went into block buster today and asked if they had the halo movie. Clerk said no, and said "Do you mean Halo 3?" and the old guys like "Halo 3? Where the 2nd one?"

Made me laugh so hard.

Ketchup and XPC are correct though. The article I read indicated that Blockbuster stores that were already carrying both formats would continue to do so, but any that had not started stocking HD discs yet would only stock Blu-ray when they do. Lame, but true.

I do Netflix though and they stock both and hopefully will continue to do so for the foreseeable future.
