Did you purchase an HD DVD player of some sort from Amazon.com before February 23rd of this year? If so - you better check your email! Amazon is sending out $50 dollar credit codes to anyone who purchased an HD DVD player from them before that date. These codes appear to be valid for one year from the time that Amazon issued the code. And yes - this applies to the Xbox 360 HD DVD add-on too (since I ordered my unit from Amazon back when it first came out at the end of 2006). It’s nice to see Amazon following the lead of Best Buy in giving back credit to consumers who jumped on the HD DVD bandwagon. Now.. if they would only do something with these HD DVD discs of ours…

Hint: How about a trade-in program please? HD DVD 300 for Blu-ray 300 perhaps? Sounds fair to me!
