Not sure if this works on the 360 attachments.

It does however work towards a PS3.

It's damn nice of them to cover the customers a bit considering they were taking a risk on either format.

It's a really nice gesture by Circuit City, but I'm definitely not trading in my HD-DVD's. I'm loving that blu-ray won, but only because HD-DVD's are now $5-15. My only problem with all HD movies was they were $10-15 more than a normal DVD, and for 95% of movies they're not worth watching in HD. Now that there's a fire sale on HD-DVD's, I've bought more movies in the last month than in the last 5 years.

Especially since the HD drive for the 360 is only like $50 bucks now. If i could just find few more movies that i actually want to see, i could maybe justify it.

It's a good price I'll admit but I wouldn't want movies in a format that won't be supported. No computers with disc drives, no replacement players if mine breaks, no players in friends/family place to bring the movies to. It's good though for movies that are really cheap and you'd never have bought on blu-ray anyway I suppose.
