Blockbuster to stock select stores with HD DVD, Blu-ray

For all of you early-adopters out there, we’ve got some exciting news. Blockbuster has announced plans to stock store shelves with HD DVD and Blu-ray content for sale, and of course for rent.

The national chain with over 250 stores has declared they will stock 40 titles for each of the popular high-def formats, and will rent them for the same price as regular DVDs. It’s nice to see they’re not up-charging for the more expensive discs. They likely made that decision because charging more would simply turn people away from the new technology. If anything, they should be charging less since those getting the discs already forked out hundreds on their player.
