Microsoft Slashes HD-DVD Drive to $179

by Tim Stevens on July 26, 2007 at 05:20 PM

Microsoft Cuts HD-DVD Drive to $179If you're already an Xbox 360 owner, the cheapest way to dive in to the Blu-ray vs. HD-DVD battle has always been to pick up the HD-DVD add-on for the Xbox 360. Now, Microsoft has made it even cheaper, cutting the price by $20 to $179, and even more enciting, including the drive as part of Toshiba's five free movie deal. You can pick five films of your choice out of a selection of 15 that are, well, let's just say they're not exactly cream of the crop. But, a few solid choices like 'Blazing Saddles' and 'Casablanca' are included in the list. And, with '300' hitting HD-DVD next week with more special features than the Blu-ray version, there's no time to buy like the present.
