talk about desperate moves.

Can't wait to watch the Blu-Ray fire sale from the sidelines, too.

Joe Consumer must be buying these restrictive DRM formats by the truckload.

You can do the same with a PS3 at Amazon.com as well... only it's 8 Blu-Ray movies for free.

So, everyone wins, kinda, right?
Wait, studio exclusives for each format... crap.

================
Yes.

DVD (all DRMd up) was indeed bought by the truckload when released but never 'fire-saled' to these levels so soon after release - probably due to the average joe having much less storage and codec and internet capabilities.

The fact remains:
Products flying off the shelves never need these desperate incentives to move boxes.
