Did you guys bother to read the fine print? They value this price at $3,000. That means if you win, you owe the IRS taxes on $3,000. No thanks, I don't have a spare $1k lying around to spend on hd discs and players, no matter how good a value is it.
And if it's the HD DVD one you win you might end up paying more in taxes than the stuff is actually worth.
