I think it’s pretty much a given that DVD looks much better than something like VHS. Of course, now there’s something even better than DVD: Blu-ray. If you’re as big a fan of this awesome High-Def format as we are here at The Flickcast and you love saving money, then this post is for you.

Starting  today, at the all-new DVD2Blu site, over 85 Warner Bros. films including Gran Torino, 2001 Space Odyssey, Superman II, Ocean’s Eleven, V for Vendetta, The Shining, Pans Labyrinth and dozens more are available on Blu-ray for as low as $4.95. Yes, you read that right.

What’s the catch? Well, in order to get this rock bottom price you need to exchange your old standard def DVD’s for band new, shiny Blu-ray versions. You simply select the title you to upgrade, and mail in your standard DVD with pre-paid postage.

Then, a short time late you’ll get a copy of the same film on Blu-ray. They even offer free shipping on orders over $35.00. Cool, right?

Of course, you still have to have the standard def DVD’s to trade in for the lowest price but if you do already have them , why not get a Blu-ray copy instead? Seems like a pretty good deal, especially if you were going to buy the Blu-ray version anyway.

A few months ago, we reported that Warner Bros. Home Video put together a new initiative where consumers could send in certain HD DVD’s and get a shiny new Blu-Ray copy in the mail. The service only cost about $5 per trade, which was a bonus considering the price of Blu-Ray discs at the time.

Well, it looks like that plan worked so well that the studio is doing it again, this time with your standard DVD collection in The DVD2Blu project. With Black Friday and the holiday season just around the corner, it is projected that Blu-Ray players and discs will jump in sales from now until the end of the year. This, of course, would render your regular DVD collection obsolete.

Though it was only $5 for the Red2Blu service, it looks like this time the price is now $7.95, which is still a huge difference in going out and spending $30-$40 on a new Blu Ray collection. The offered discs on the site is pretty extensive, considering that it is only through Warner’s Home Video releases.

Check out the DVD2Blu site, see how you an upgrade your DVD collection, and get ready for the HD Quality revolution!
