I can't see them stocking HD (it's wise not to ignore BD completely) for ages yet. They only stock SACDs if they're Hybrids and only DVD-A if they also come with a CD.
CD WOW as you know have a tight stock policy.
That said I can seriously see them stocking Combos BUT then will most DVD buyers buy them considering the cost so CD WOW maybe put off. The cost of Hybrid SACDs is virtually the same as CDs.
It's worth an e-mail.

Land of the Dead
An American Werewolf in London

I wouldn't go as far to say Universal release crap DVDs but regardless thanks for the list. It's useful.
Only "Lady in the Water" and "An American Werewolf in London" interest me. The former is too risky to spend £18.99 on, blind. I'll see if I can watch it for free or rent first. I've not rented in years as I normally wait for the price to drop but I've got a feeling Combos won't be dropping any time soon.
I have AAWIL on pre-order. I hope it's as good as they say. The added advantage being the R1 has DTS not on the UK Discs, which as they're oddly 2 discs will mean even if the UK gets a combo it will be bare-bones.

Except its a low budget English film which I'm pretty sure was recorded in mono, so DTS isn't going to be a big improvement...bradavon wrote:I have AAWIL on pre-order.

Blu-ray Disc to be precise. BD has become the short form for Blu-ray (like DVD). It's BD or HD-DVD.
Eva then comes along and invents his own (BRD), Blu-ray is being considered one word. I've no idea why it's Blu not Blue though.
