I too have no need to wonder why retailers are not doing well.
I was in BB, returning some gifts because the Wii games that were bought for $49 at BB were $29 at Game Stop.
Anyway, they had Samsung BR players marked down to $149 from $349. hmmmm, already got the 71" DLP so let's see how these HD movies look.
They have Magnolia in the corner with all the big screens, but guess what? No HD-DVD or BR-DVD players hooked up.
They did have them in the regular part of the store, playing on end caps on 32 and 37" LCD's. I guess it was a little sharper, but hard to tell, especially when the HD player was on a $599 32" LCD that was bragging about it's HD 1366x768 resolution.
