Why trade in a movie that takes up 9G or 2G of space for one that will take up 30G? Sure that makes sense if it is a visually stunning movie. Otherwise, it's just a waste of space. The disk itself is not the point. This is the 21st century. What really matters is how much space will it take up in your media server. A single plastic disk doesn't really take up so much space.
For those looking for a device strictly for reading, the new Kobo is a nice little option. It's small enough to slip into a pocket, can do more with a PDF than the competition, and at $129, it's $10 cheaper than both the Nook and Kindle WiFi.
