Rounding Up HD News: CompUSA to Close Doors After Holidays
CompUSA Will Shut Stores After Holidays
CompUSA Inc. will close its doors after the holidays. The Dallas-based retailer, which was acquired by a unit of restructuring firm Gordon Brothers Group LLC, had already closed about half of its 200-odd stores in February as part of a reorganization plan. Gordon Brothers will sell some of its stores as well as the company’s technical-services unit, CompUSA said in a statement. Revenue at CompUSA, founded in 1984, has been hurt by larger competitors Best Buy Co. and Circuit City Stores Inc. as well as by online retailer Amazon.com Inc., which has boosted its electronics sales.

In addition to Universal Pictures, which produced the trilogy, Paramount Pictures and Lionsgate Entertainment have agreements with Vudu to distribute their films in HD, AP said.
Samsung Blu-ray Player Price Cut by Retailers
The price of Samsung’s BD-P1400 Blu-ray player was cut twice in two weeks by retailers such as Amazon.com Inc. and Costco Wholesale Corp., DVD review Web site HighDefDigest.com reported. After reducing the player’s price to $299 from the suggested retail price of $399 last week, Costco, the largest U.S. warehouse club, cut the price further to $280 while Amazon, the world’s largest Internet retailer, slashed the price further to $270, HighDefDigest.com said. That brings Blu-ray player prices closer to its HD-DVD competition. Amazon’s cheapest HD-DVD player, the Toshiba 1080i HD-A3, is listed at $200.

You forgot to mention Fry's Inc., which beat Compusa every which way but Tuesday as far as prices go; plus their stores dwarf anything
Compusa ever had.

I'm actually going to miss CompUSA, though I can understand why so many people won't. I got a Wireless-B network card from CompUSA from their Lombard, IL store where as nobody else had it stock in the Chicago area.

The Zune concentrates on being a Portable Media Player. Not a web browser. Not a game machine. Maybe in the future it'll do even better in those areas, but for now it's a fantastic way to organize and listen to your music and videos, and is without peer in that regard. The iPod's strengths are its web browsing and apps. If those sound more compelling, perhaps it is your best choice.
