PS3 and Blue ray movies at Blockbusters

Hi
I have a PS3 connected to a infocus IN76 projector....I saw an advert on the TV that blockbusters were renting BR DVD's so I popped in to hire.

What an incredible large selection they had!!!!!!

I THINK NOT

There was only 1 copy of dejavu and 1 copy of Pursuit of happyness!!!!! no copies of any other new movies

Is this the norm at your blockbusters.....

the availability of 1 unit to be shared amongst how many 100's of members!

There were more copies for sale then rental....

Frustrated because how will HD source become popular if you can't view it.

The Blockbusters I went into had quite a big range of rentable titles including Casino Royale and Deja Vu.

mine had about 15 to rent last time I looked. Would expect nearer 20 by now. And the same ones for sale also.

I got 6 BD movies today from blockbusters and they had quite a nice selection too, obviously some branches will hold more than others.

One BB in London had two or three shelves of BR's for sale, and lower half of cabinet was for rental - and while the rental copies seemed fewer in number and choice I seem to recall there being two or three copies of each (8-10 films I think) to rent

From all of the posts received it seems that It's the BB that I use.

I must say that they have ONLY 1 copy for rental of Deja VU, Pursuit of happiness and then since the relaease of rocky, onloy 1 copy again????
