I don't see it like that at all. My one friend has the 360 and won't be getting into HD on his own anytime soon. He's simply got too many bills and can't afford it. So for $50 bucks he gets to see what HD is all about via his PJ. Cheap for me and cheaper yet for him!

All he has to do is buy (or also receive as gifts) a couple of movies which are now plummeting in price.
Another friend is in a similar situation so for me this $50 is a great price while introducing them to what HD has to offer. Granted, they probably could wait another year or two for the players and s/w to come down in price and buy on their own, but getting a taste early is cool in my eyes.
I would like to think they feel the opposite of being 'doomed' and instead feel good that their buddy got them into HD on the super cheap.
But don't worry dear, I'll scratch your name from my gift list.
