I look back over this comic again and I am struck at just how well executed the artwork is.

I was eye-raped once. By a bear. Something makes me think an HD version of Batman & Robin would feel worse.

Gotta love Rifftrax, but I'm pretty sure I'd still go blind even with the awesome commentary.

"I wonder if now might be a good time to go pick up a bunch of WB HD-DVD’s for $10 in bargain bins and start trading them in."

Nope, it sure wouldn't for two reasons.

1.) There are no $10 HD DVD bins as far as I've seen. I'm astounded to see that most stores that still sell HD DVDs are still selling them for $20+ dollars. Maybe these bins exist somewhere (perhaps next to the grail), but I've not seen them in person or online.

2.) Even if you did find $10 HD DVDs, that's $10 + $5 + $7 for S&H. Most Blu-ray discs are around $26. So you've driven to the store, bought HD DVDs, mailed in your insert, waited 4 to 5 weeks, all to save $3. Pass.

As to making money, they likely see it as an investment in encouraging stalwart HD DVD fans to more fully embrace Blu-ray. If you bought a HD DVD player and have a stack of HD DVDs, you're looking at the cost of a new player plus the full cost of all of that content to make the switch. There are probably many who simply decided to just live with DVDs again until the prices come down. This program lowers the cost of conversion, which makes you more likely to purchase future Warner releases on Blu-ray. It's a good move on their part, because they also get some nice PR out of it as well.
