Update: The Hollywood Reporter writes today that Paramount says 500,000 Blu-ray and 7.2 million DVDs of Iron Man were sold in the first week. First day sales generated 260,000 Blu-ray sales of the film, a new record, according to Paramount. However, in terms of sales percentages, the studio numbers are less impressive than those quoted in the original Video Business story, cited above.

I may end up buying a player, if the prices go down, and the economy perks up a bit. CE says their was a 1% increase in sales in Aug.

Brat blu is the way to go and prices on players are dropping more every week.

Where did you score IM blu for 20 bucks?

Best Buy had a online special where they marked the BD down to $20.99 if you pre-ordered Indy 4 for $24.99. I hated paying more than $20 for Indy 4, but I am such an large Indiana Jones fan that I said WTH.

Just make sure when you go to Iron Man on Bestbuy.com that you click on the little promotion line that says save $10 on Iron Man and Indiana Jones. Also, store pickup will save you about $5 on shipping as I tested it to be sure.
