The Swan Song

I received a surprise package yesterday. It ended up being my 5 free HD-DVDs that I sent in for nearly 5 months ago. I really didn't think that I was ever going to receive them since the HD-DVD promotional group was dissolved back in early March. So it was kind of a bittersweet moment, a final flourish on the defeated format. I say bittersweet because I only received one of the five "picks" that I made, the other four were a ragtag collection of shitty box office flops and one duplicate of a movie I had already bought. Hurray! I nearly doubled my collection of a dead media platform.

Again, early adopters deserve hugs and free beers.
