kn said:There is something here for Toshiba, however. If they want to win this war and win it now, They need to put their A3s down close to the same price. Nix the 5 free BS deal and go 2 or 3 free in store for $129 or something along those lines. This sale and the response (more or less immediate sell-out) proves that Joe Six Pack's heart and mind will be won with low prices and not fanboy rhetoric, marketing, or any other sleight of hand. |
You just brought up a good and important point. If the bottom line is saying that pricing drives hardware sales, then blu-ray is in deep trouble. If people are only willing to pay <$150 for a player with free movies, how likely are they gonna buy a $399 PS3 or $445 standalone player with just spiderman 3?
