Harry Potter Blunder
Posted December 12, 2007 09:00 AM by Josh Dreuth
Some owners of the 'Harry Potter Limited Edition Gift Set' are reporting that an HD DVD has infiltrated their Blu-ray packaging. Numerous reports are surfacing that owners of the Blu-ray set are finding HD DVD versions of "Goblet of Fire" or "The Order of the Phoenix" in their packaging. So if you picked up the set yesterday, or plan to pick one up soon, make sure to check all the discs for the Blu-ray logo.
If you happen to find an HD DVD, don't panic. Recent university-based studies have shown that HD DVDs are not contagious, and only harmful when viewed with alcohol. The easiest way to remedy the problem is to return the set to the store where you purchased it. Most retailers have extended return policies for the holidays, so even if you receive/give it as a gift later this month, you are covered.
