07/15/2004: "DVD prices fall"

For the past month or so, decent quality low priced DVDs have hit the market. Circuit City has had some 2/$15 sales. Best Buy has had 3/$20. Walgreen's, of all places, has had some low end DVDs for $1.99 or 2/$3.00. Some of the DVDs at that price included four episodes of classic TV comedies such as Andy Griffith and Dick Van Dyke.

But the best price I've seen so far was at an Ann Arbor Meijers. At 3/$10, the highly rated Cyrano de Bergerac.

Anyway, if you've thought about building a DVD collection, this is a good time to start. Or, you can wait for the next generation of DVDs. After all, as DVDs get bigger, movies will be released with higher screen resolutions. Today's DVDs will seem grainy by comparison, just as DVDs make VHS look bad.
