HD-DVD - BluRay
 
I don't know if anybody here bet on HD-DVD like I did, but Warner Bros is offering to let you have BluRay copies of your HD-DVDs for $4.95 - and you get to keep your HD-DVD discs.

Red2Blu

Shipping is $6.95 no matter how many discs you replace (up to 25) and single DVDs are $4.95. Box sets range from $9.95 to $14.95.

Almost all of the movies that Warner issued in both formats are eligible with the exception of Planet Earth, which they say will be added soon.

For what it's worth.

No EUA for me. I was #18 or something on the list

So far this year, I've been #1, #3, and "undisclosed" (no way to check at BWI) on the three I've missed.

And those who fail go to the UA board?

Don't you mean bourgeoisie swine?

Sure, but with the exception of the guy in 12C who kep looking over at rolov and me building towers of minis and :rolleyes:ing at us I don't really think that there was anyone other than our crew on the plane. :D :p

That guy was a tool. He seemed to be indignant over the fact that we were enjoying ourselves. We weren't noisy, nor disruptive. Whatever.

Taunting about receiving the EUA isn't cool, although I'm not sure how much one could complain with a seat in an exit row and a fistful of drink chits.

I couldn't complain whatsoever in the Do example. Especially after "Gil says hi" and EddieG handing me drink chits as I walked thru F.

Excellent suggestion.

There's an unfortunate lack of long-haul Soviet and Chinese aircraft to choose from. Shanghai Y-10 can squeeze out a decent amount of range, as can the Il-62MK (lousy economics), but there's nothing there with TPAC range. Il-86 can handle a lot of Pax, but doesn't fly very far (roughly the same range as a Tu-154B).

For short-range, the Yak-42D is the best earner in my fleet. Just started up another one this morning.

Don't the worker's paradise nations of Laos, Cuba or Vietnam manufacture high-tech long range aircraft that are the envy of the running dog Yankee imperialists?

What about the offerings of the DPRK that those weak-kneeled so-called socialist swine at Airbus keep trying to steal?

There is a new Ilyushin being released into our fake world soon. A340's are coming next year too.

The idea of of earning is counter-revolutionary, my dear comrade. Our glorious air fleet exists to move the proletariat to ever more glorious farm collectives.

Off to the gulag, er, re-education camp for you.

I'd love some 777 action, personally. Much better economies than the 747.

Awesome. I'm rather looking forward to getting started on it, though I do hope you have a nice time on your trip to AMS. ;)
