Seriously, who would want to add $1.50 + shipping to the cost of each Blu-Ray movie so that it looks better when mixed with your HD-DVD movies? That's more than a little absurd.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[J.

The details seem ok.  I have thought for some time that whoever wins the format war should reach out to the customers in the losing camp especially flip-flop studios like warner.  If you purchased the media in HD-DVD, there should be an easy way to get a Blu copy.  Of course it doesn't make them much money as if everybody just got two copies.  The benefit is getting everyone behind one format and helping the consumer.  Yeah, I'm talking to you Warner!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Brian C]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 8th 2008 12:42PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on HDScape offers up HD DVD to Blu-ray exchange program]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2008/02/22/hdscape-offers-up-hd-dvd-to-blu-ray-exchange-program/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2008/02/22/hdscape-offers-up-hd-dvd-to-blu-ray-exchange-program/</guid><description><![CDATA[You can keep your case -- but you need to mail in the paper cover that is inside the case.  Cheaper than mailing in a case and you do get to keep the original disc.  <br><br>All I see on eBay is the sampler disc anyway.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[NuttyBars]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 22nd 2008 1:02PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on HDScape offers up HD DVD to Blu-ray exchange program]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2008/02/22/hdscape-offers-up-hd-dvd-to-blu-ray-exchange-program/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2008/02/22/hdscape-offers-up-hd-dvd-to-blu-ray-exchange-program/</guid><description><![CDATA[I find offers like this to be very classy and it really helps reduce the cost to people who feel ripped off by having the format war end against their format.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[XDragon]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 22nd 2008 1:09PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on HDScape offers up HD DVD to Blu-ray exchange program]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2008/02/22/hdscape-offers-up-hd-dvd-to-blu-ray-exchange-program/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2008/02/22/hdscape-offers-up-hd-dvd-to-blu-ray-exchange-program/</guid><description><![CDATA[The real question is who actually owns any of these HDScape HD DVD's?<br><br>I guess I'll have to wait until the studios that put out the movies I actually bought start doing this.

The move to Blu-Ray is something the larger companies pushed, and it doesn't reflect the investment I've made in technology.  Really glad to see that HDscape is making this offer, I'm going to take advantage of it.<br><br>I'm still going to buy HD DVD anyways, as I have a great player and all of the other titles I have are HD anyways... not going to rush and get all Blu-Ray titles, I have a large library of HD and it makes sense for me to add to it, rather than jump over to the new format. <br><br>I think it speaks volumes about this company that they're offering a deal for their customers, Kudos to HDscape for being proactive and continuing to offer value to their patrons. Keep up the good work!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Louis Wing]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 22nd 2008 1:20PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on HDScape offers up HD DVD to Blu-ray exchange program]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2008/02/22/hdscape-offers-up-hd-dvd-to-blu-ray-exchange-program/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2008/02/22/hdscape-offers-up-hd-dvd-to-blu-ray-exchange-program/</guid><description><![CDATA[Somehow I don't see many other the other major studios doing this, but it would certainly make my day.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[tlarkin79]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 22nd 2008 1:56PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on HDScape offers up HD DVD to Blu-ray exchange program]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2008/02/22/hdscape-offers-up-hd-dvd-to-blu-ray-exchange-program/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2008/02/22/hdscape-offers-up-hd-dvd-to-blu-ray-exchange-program/</guid><description><![CDATA[There is no loss for them, as they're in fact selling you the Blu-Ray at something near cost plus expenses, and it gives a major boost to their corporate image. I wouldn't think of paying full price for the Blu-ray version of a movie I already have on HD DVD. But for 12$ I very well might be tempted, and I'd think very high about the studio who give me the opportunity. So yes, Warner and others should definitely follow HDscape's lead.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Franssu]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 22nd 2008 2:53PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on HDScape offers up HD DVD to Blu-ray exchange program]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2008/02/22/hdscape-offers-up-hd-dvd-to-blu-ray-exchange-program/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2008/02/22/hdscape-offers-up-hd-dvd-to-blu-ray-exchange-program/</guid><description><![CDATA[Even if you don't have the HD DVD version and want the blu-ray, it's cheaper to buy the HDDVD for $7 (or less if you get the whole set) and then pay $12 per disc to upgrade.

The retailers keep saying "Buy this player and receive X many movies free!" <br><br>People who have tried getting their free movies even before the war ended have been getting postcards saying "sorry for delay, yada yada." Now that the announcement is official is there anything in the offer term that says something similar to "Toshiba has the right to cancel this offer at anytime?"]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[sycks]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Feb 22nd 2008 3:23PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on HDScape offers up HD DVD to Blu-ray exchange program]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2008/02/22/hdscape-offers-up-hd-dvd-to-blu-ray-exchange-program/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2008/02/22/hdscape-offers-up-hd-dvd-to-blu-ray-exchange-program/</guid><description><![CDATA[@J.
