If someone asks you if you are a god…
PNY, in a weirdly-timed move, has released a special edition 2gb USB memory key with the movie “Ghostbusters” installed on it.
It is available now for £29.99. SCREECH… whoa, wait… What?
£29.99! That’s an extremely high premium over a normal 2gb USB drive. A quick jaunt around Argos shows that most are in the £14.99 range.
Our recommendation? Go the the local grocer and find a copy of Ghostbusters in a discount bin for £4.99.
Don’t get me wrong, Ghostbusters is a great film - one of this authors’ all-time favorites in fact… But there is no way I’d pay £15 for it, unless it was the definitive, remastered, collector’s edition hi-def Blu Ray version of it. As we understand it, this is a 480p, highly DRM’ed, highly compressed version that will play on PCs/laptops only (we’re thinking probably Windows Media) and must have the key inserted to play.
Scoring a solid “meh” from Icrontic, we’ll take the pass. Find another gatekeeper.
(Ed note: Ah, the cost of licensing. What am I going to do with this key now?)
THERE IS NO REASONABLE PRICE, oNLY ZOOL!
So wait, this is because of Ghostbusters 3 right?
