Chicago (IL) – The Blu-ray camp has responded to the rather dramatic HD DVD player price cut from last week this weekend: If you purchase certain LCD TV models, Sony and Sharp are throwing in a “free” Blu-ray player.
Sources for one or more of the changes and/or additions were not submitted. Please include the sources for your changes in the contribution notes, especially for cast and crew additions.

Panasonic was doing something similar with Best Buy a couple weeks ago....the ad said buy a Panny TV and Panny Blu-ray player and get a saving of $XXX which just happened to be equal to the price of the Blu-ray player.

How free are they really.  Did the retailers do away with any of their normal discounts?  Doesn't seem like much of a deal, especially since I have a nice HDTV and HD Projector already.

Toshiba is doing it too.

From Best Buy Canada, way down at the bottom of the page under all the BD bundle deals.

Purchase this Toshiba REGZA 46” 1080p Flat-Panel LCD HDTV and a 1080p HD DVD player (HD-A30) for $2299.99 and save $550


Too bad for Toshiba that they don't sell a lot of HDTVs and all the top sellers are in the Blue camp.
Tom.
