anyone notice that most of the Best Of’s are only 1.99, while a few are 9.99—even though all run over an hour each?! Hmm…

I take that back. They’re listed at 1.99, but when you drop one in you cart and go to checkout, they suddenly list as 9.99. Must be working out the bugs. Knew it was too good to be true. Oh well.
Lame, though, seeing as you can buy an entire episode of Lost for 1.99. Guess they don’t want to detract from Best of DVD sales—although you can find those in the bargain bin for 5.50 quite often.

Hey! Where’s Eddie Murphy? He’s the only reason I watched SNL in the 80s.

9.99 for an hour long show? WTF! You can buy the dvd for less. And 1.99 for some skits that are only 2 minutes long?
And people wonder why folks use bit torrent/p2p.
They need to change the article,the ‘best ofs’ are not 1.99 per. I’d pay 2.99 tops. What a joke.

Lazy Sunday was only supposed to be free for a short period of time during the holidays.
