    Price drop!!!

    Santa Clara, CA - January 24, 2008 -- VUDU Inc., the company that brings instant access to video-entertainment to the living room, today announced that it has lowered the price of the basic VUDU box to $295, a decrease of more than $100. The new price takes effect Jan. 24, 2008.
    Since its launch last year, VUDU has quickly achieved critical mass among home video fans by offering instant gratification, always-on accessibility, a vast selection of current and classic video content and weekly delivery of new titles as they come to market.
    "We've been thrilled by the enthusiastic response we've received from our early customers, which tells us we're giving video fans the experience they've been waiting for," said Patrick Cosson, VUDU's VP of Marketing. "With its large catalog of Standard Definition and High Definition movies and TV shows and now a new lower price, VUDU is the perfect upgrade for any movie lover who wants great video quality plus the convenience that only digital delivery can offer."
    VUDU enables consumers to have instant access to video entertainment directly from their TV. By crafting relationships with every major Hollywood movie studio and more than 22 independent studios and distributors, VUDU offers the largest catalog of any online movie distributor and new movies and TV shows are added weekly.
    Anyone who purchased a VUDU box in the last 30 days can receive a $100 movie credit with proof of purchase whether they purchased the product from VUDU.com or from any other retailer by contacting VUDU Customer Care (888-554-VUDU).
    At the recent Consumer Electronic Show in Las Vegas, VUDU announced the addition of 70 HD movies from top studios and unveiled the VUDU XL, a brand new high-end version of the already successful VUDU box. The new product, designed for integration into high-end home theaters, will ship by the end of the February.

    Re: Price drop!!!

    Just my luck. Right after I pulled the trigger on a VUDU from Ebay. IF I had know this was coming so soon I would have waited or just purchased at $400 since they would have given me a $100 credit.
    I just can't win.

      Hey, this good news caught everyone here by surprise. I know it can be hard to look past the economics of your specific situation, but it really is a great announcement.

      BTW, do you have any stock market advise? I have a theory - I'd like to try doing the opposite of what you suggest...

          I am afflicted with this same 'luck'. I have named it the 'Sadim' touch (Midas backwards) and everything I touch turns to sh*t !!!

          Overall this is great news for Vudu!

            Probably a good idea. I have a couple of CDs that matured and i planned on putting the money in another CD at ING Direct> I didn't get around to it last week and now I see the interest rate dropped by 1%.

              Is the $50 in VUDU bucks promotion gone? I don't see it on the website anymore. It was supposed to last until the end of January. That was the reason why I wanted to hurry up and get the box and activate it before the end of January.

                No, it's not gone. I just checked on the Vudu website, clicked on "Buy Now" and the offer is still there . . . if you activate it by January 31st:

                  It doesn't show up for me anymore when I go to that page.

                    Agreed. I don't see it.

                    I would call customer support and ask about it. If it was to run through the end of January, they will probably still honor it but just aren't promoting it. Most people who have bought boxes this month paid $399 and therefore are going to get a $100 credit...

                        Did the $50 credit apply to each box? If I got two VUDUs would I get a $50 credit for each box or is it just for each account?

                          Yes I used your link. Try refreshig the page, it might be pulling the page from your cache. As long as I can still get it I'm ok with it. Customer service doesn't open until 12PM EST so I'll give them a call this afternoon. Depending on what they tell me I might get two boxes now instead of just the one. I don't know how I got to the point where I'm considering getting two boxes.

                            I think it's for each box.

                              Yeah, it's pulling up the images from your local cache. Reload the page while holding down the "ALT" key.

                              That ignores the cache and forces the reload.
