RENT Filmed LIVE on Broadway! -- Released TODAY

Hey All -

Just wanted to pass along all pre-ordered DVDs will be released (via Amazon (and) other outlets) TODAY! Having not seen the show since June '06, I *just* ordered mine, actually... Came to just over $20 (shipping included). VERY STOKED!

Best,
- Mike

getting mine on my way home from class today!!! hopefully they have it at target or best buy for cheaper than FYE!! either way, I am watching it this afternoon!

I am SO excited!!

The Blue Ray disc has even more Special Features than the regular DVD. Me thinks its time to get a Blue Ray Disc Player- I've been putting it of....

I'm gonna go grab it now! I can'twait!!

Target had it for $17.99 and thats the best I found it anywhere!!! Getting ready to watch it now! yay!

"I personally don't believe Blu-Ray is worth it. Not only are the players and dvds expensive, the benefits are really only noticeable on large screen tvs. The only reason Blu-Ray is doing moderately well is the ingenious inclusion of them on the Playstation."

That's not really true. It depends on how you have it hooked up to the TV. If you are using the old school patch cords to hook it up then you won't notice the difference. If you have an old school tv that isn't HD then you won't see the difference either. If you have an HD TV and hook it up with an HDMI cord, it looks amazing, even on a small tv. That does all cost a lot of money though, and let's face it, no one has a lot of money right now.

As for the subject at hand, I pre-ordered mine on amazon.com, so who knows when it will actually get here.

i ordered from amazon and mine is here today!

I do have it on my computer (the DVD was leaked via bit torrent a while ago) but I am looking forward to actually having a copy on DVD. I am looking forward to getting it and taking control of the lounge in my dorm with the best tv and just sitting back and enjoying this.

As I said earlier, I am hoping that the FYE in my local college town mall does have it. I am guessing that they won't considering that I am sure that before I came they never even sold one CD from their selection of cast albums. But, they do say that if it isn't in the store and you do want it, then they can get it shipped to the store for you to pick up and buy there. I know FYE isn't the cheapest place to get it but considering that I have a fair amount of store credit there it shouldn't cost me that much extra if anything.

RE: Amazon orders.

The reason why mine hasn't arrived yet is simply because I placed my order at a quarter after 2 this morning. By all accounts, orders placed previously will be shipped-out quicker. Makes the most sense. You guys enjoy!

This is not true at all and was only relevant when the PS3 was first released.

Does anyone know if K-mart is selling it? That's the only place I can really get to today. I checked Rite Aid but of course they didn't have it. I hope to get it today, I am really wanting to see the special features.

Hey New Yorkers...
Both Virgin Megastores only have BluRay.
All the best buys are sold out
The Theater Shops are all sold out of it, or they never got any.
I'll be damned if I go to Colony and pay 50.00 for it or whatever they mark it up to.

Anyone have any luck finding it elsewhere?
