How many of those sales are from people walking into BestBuy, Circuit City, etc wanting to buy the Regular DVD and getting home with the BluRay version instead.
Someone should do a study on how many of those 100k were returned or exchanged for standard def version.
Given the average 'savviness' of the typical BestBuy/Circuit City customer, and the BestBuy/Circuit City employees' usual attempt at selling you the most expensive of everything, regardless of whether or not you have equipment to run it, I'd be willing to guess 40% of those sales are to people who SWEAR that the BluRay version of Casino Royale looks better on their Standard Def TV, than the regular DVD. :) /ancker
