    Either Amazon.com(USA site) or Dvdworldusa.com are the cheapest and are cheaper than HMV.

    HMV on Henry Street have them... I'm guessing Grafton street have them too. Not a great selection... mostly old films that probably look just has good upsampled from regular DVDs.

    I saw them in HMG Grafton St. The price range was €23-€35 for new and old.

    Price was the same for blu-ray but am thinking of getting the xbox 360 hd-dvd add on so looking for hd-dvd

    I got the add on... it's very nice... but the fact that the noisey 360 has to be turned on at the same time is a pain.

    How do you have it hooked up?

    Have the vga cable on the way so it should look nice if I do get one. Will just have to increase the volume on the surround sound!

    Well, that's where they were a few weeks ago. They may have moved since.
