That's what I'm doing. The drive isn't broken and Netflix will keep sending me HDDVD until the end of the year (I think). Keep them, watch them, then gag gift them. That's what I'm doing.

I doubt Best Buy will take them back - they're completely void of any stickers. But Wal-Mart may… It may not be worth selling if you can only get $5 for them. That's working for cheap. :-) Maybe we should just watch them (on the HD-DVD player). They were free, as I said. Heck, at this point I could just toss them in the trash and I'd be okay with it.

So, you can keep the discs and play them in SD mode in your non-HD DVD player.
