IP logging isn't always a good method. All users from the same company would all have the same IP.

But are they expecting this to be completed from company computers is the question. But also IP logging and noticing multiple titles from the same IP being ordered at the same time or within minutes of each other would throw up a red flag, more so now that this got posted at BluRay.com.

Geez, they cheat meaningless polls over there. Could you imagine what they would do for some freebies?

Why wouldn't they? You are supposed to either work for a retailer, BDA company or merchandising company in order to fill it out anyway.

So Panasonic could send an email around to their employees. They all then go online and fill it out.

Call me skeptic then, but I doubt everyone will get their multiple copies, or even 1. The cats out of the bag now that this has hit BD.com and every other site.

I just put Countrywide, so I doubt i'll even get it. Figured it was worth a try those. I didn't feel like clicking the box and lying about it, conscience kicked in.

Not to mention that they ask the company name too. I am pretty sure that many didn't think to use the same company name, but have different domains for their email addresses.

Lollllllllllllll. I don't mean to thread jack, but look at this, they [sort of] mention the profile issue!

Why don't all Blu-ray bonus features function on all Blu-ray Disc™ players?

Our Blu-ray Discs™ are manufactured to the highest quality available. It is possible a Blu-ray Disc™ was manufactured after your Blu-ray Disc™ player was released.

If that is the case, your player may not support all the features on the disc. In some cases, a firmware or software upgrade to your player may improve playability.
It won't play because it's manufactured to the highest quality available? Hahahah.

Well I just checked my messages since I just woke up and my mom got the one I sent her Yesterday. Figures I went over there last night and she didn't get the mail. I think I sent the Prestige to her. I'll post back once I get it from her.

Thanks Mischa. Not sure if I'll bother but it was fun reading some of the facts.

I loved this one. I'll have to see if the company I work for is a member of the BDA. I know we are on the DVD forum steering comittee and we have a couple of PS3s on display. If we are then I have 100s of names I could use, lol.
