Best Buy Buys You Out

By now every body is slowly finding out that HD DVD players are gone. Bye bye see ya boo who. So to pick up the slack, Best Buy is going to be marketing the people that bought HD players and accessories. Oops, I mean they want to help you in your time of need.

It was announced on CNN that Best Buy would be giving away $50 gift cards to those who bought a HD DVD player or accessories before February 23rd. Now this does sound like a pretty sweet deal. Free gift cards is never a bad thing. But, Best Buy knows that a $50 gift card is nothing compared to the $300 to $400 you paid for that DVD player. The gift card is basically a ploy to get you to buy a Blueray player from them. Hey… you shelled out that much for a HD player, then why wouldn’t you do it again, especially if you had a gift card.

I guess the decision is now up to you though. To buy or not to “Best” Buy. It’s funny because Circuit City has a page dedicated to explaining the HD issue, but no resolution yet. I see it coming though.

Got comments, I’d love to hear them.
