Blu Ray Guide
With the arrival of Blu-Ray, the new higher definition format of discs, finding the movie you want in the format you’re looking for has become slightly more challenging. However, there’s no need to fear, as this guide should answer most common questions about the integration of the Blu-Rays into our stock of new films.
The Basics:
There are a few simple ways to see if we cary a title in Blu-Ray, and to tell the difference between Blu-Rays and DVDs. Behind any title we stock in Blu-Ray, we’ll have a backer like the one in the picture to the left, indicating that we have both Blu-Ray and DVD.
Though the physical discs look about the same, the cases have one major difference. Let’s use Iron Man as an example. All Blu-Rays have a wide blue band running across the top of the case, with the Blu-Ray logo in the center of it. These discs will not play in a regular DVD player. If you’re looking for a DVD copy and all you see at first is a Blu-Ray, don’t fret too much. We keep the Blu-Rays in the front of the stack, with the DVDs behind. Just take a peek behind the Blu-Ray copies until you find a DVD copy (without the blue band across the top).
Advanced Browsing:
The addition of the new Blu-Ray backer has made our “Recommended By” and “Reckless Recommends” backers a little more complicated, though not impossible to decipher with the help of this guide.
The basic rule of thumb is that if the backer is blue, we stock the title on Blu-Ray.
A yellow backer with some of our faces on it means some of us recommend it, and it’s only available on DVD. A blue backer with our 
faces on it again means that some of us recommend it AND we have it on both Blu-Ray and DVD, even though our faces took the place of the Blu-Ray and DVD logos.
Same thing goes for the Reckless Recommends backers. An orange backer with the star and “Reckless Recommends” means that we all recommend the title, but we only have it available on DVD. Again, a blue backer with the same logo and text indicates that we all like the title AND we have it on both Blu-Ray and DVD.
