This player is already obsolete
Too bad the S300 is garbage. It isn't even BD profile 1.1 compliant, so extras written for 1.1 on future Blu-ray titles won't even work. I'll stick with HD DVD.

You would think that, with all the great movies available on bluray, they could maybe find a few to put in their promotion. But no. Say what you want about HD DVD, but their 5-movie choice at least has a few titles worth having.

Its strange but my local Wal-marts are not offering this deal. May be a regional thing.

Open season would be a welcome addition, Gridiron Gang was alright as well, and of the 5 free BDA movies - thanks for Pearl Harbor, but no thanks to the other 24 titles to choose from. I printed the list the other night to mail in with my PS3 over the next few weeks, and I had trouble finding moveis I wanted - for FREE. Just because they're free, doesn't mean they're worth buying the player for ...

I didn't have a chance to read through the posts, but you may want to add that the same player is available at Costco for $450 (making it the cheapest on the market for Blu-Ray).

We have Four Wal-marts in the Grand Rapids area. The one closest to me only has like five HD DVD titles one Blu-ray title (Xmen 3) that is locked in the case with the PS3 games. The one on the south west side of town has a Blu-ray display with Dinosaurs playing but only have HD DVDs for sale. Then the one on the south east side have HD DVD and Blu-ray for sale but it doesn't have this deal noted here. I think Wal-mart may be confused with the new High Def formats.
