Who knew there was another nail? Anyway, Netflix announced today that come Dec. 15, it'll stop renting out its last remaining HD DVDs. The news shouldn't come as a surprise -- I blogged about it months ago (and I even used the old "nail in the coffin" cliché back then, too) -- but that said, another sad day for old HD DVD fans. I still have a few HD DVDs in my collection -- "Blade Runner," "2001," "The Shining," and "Zodiac" among them (as well as a working HD DVD add-on for my Xbox 360) -- but I'll probably end up replacing them with Blu-rays at some point.
Still in the hunt for HD DVD bargains? Check out Amazon's ongoing fire sale -- some good bargains to be had (if you can call movies in an essentially obsolete format a bargain), with many discs going for south of $8.
