OK, I live in Seattle, and I frequent Best Buy at Northgate, Best Buy/Circuit City in Federal Way, and even Best Buy/Circuit City way up North in Lynwood (near Alderwood Mall).
I've noticed that with any big release that has both a WideScreen and FullScreen release that the WS releases are MUCH more prominiantly displayed in and around Seattle area stores.
Is it this way in MOST large metro areas? All I hear people complain about is how stores barely carry widescreen releases, well that does NOT seam the case in the Seattle area.
Maybe it's because we have the most educated city in the world (I read somewhere between 50-70 percent of Seattle's citizens hold at least 4-year college degrees). OK, that sounded snobbish Maybe it's this way in MOST big cities? Maybe those complaining live in more rural areas where J6p's dominate?
Just thought I'd chime in. Went to Best Buy at Northgate on Tuesday to pick up LOTR and found a large display of WideScreen release right as you walk up to the DVD section. No fullscreen DVD's in sight (I'm sure they were there, but not on the LOTR display).
I know this topic has been discussed before, but it's usually the other way around, so I thought it deserveed a thread
