Perhaps, that's the future now that the format war is practically over. While the BOGOs were indeed great for our wallets and collections, the format war was bad for the future of HDM in the long haul, so we're just gonna have to take some bad w/ the greater good. Hopefully, they will lower prices some in general to help make up for killing the great deals. For instance, more of Disney's recent offers of $10 rebate/coupon for certain DVD-to-BD upgrades would be nice, eg. PotC 3, The Rock, Crimson Tide.

B2G1 is not bad if prices are lower. Since I normally wanted whatever 2-disc SE version on SD DVD (when available), the prices of HDM aren't quite that much higher anyhow. Of course, it does make certain more marginal titles harder to pick up -- and I guess I might end up sticking w/ steeply discounted SD DVD for those in many cases. In fact, I just finally picked up the OAR Moonstruck along w/ the non-SE Paris, Je T'Aime (~$7.50 each) to go w/ one of my B2G1 orders.

Actually, I hope the DVDSAVE5 coupon returns at some point to help offset the fact we don't seem to be getting BOGOs anymore. That on top of B2G1 would not be bad at all.

Also can anyone tell me why Amazon doesn't advertise these sales on the Blu-Ray page? I was just looking through titles before I stumbled upon this thread and found no trace of this sale!

No idea, but they do mention the sale on the item page for each title that's on sale.
