They have to keep what they buy. A friend of mine that works in Walmarts corporate offices told me that their decision was based on that alone.
Their HD-DVDs and Blu-Ray titles are anything but cheap. Sorry but outside of a clearance sale I would NEVER buy any HD titles from them. Unfortunately the average joe is dumb enough to purchase from them and so this does make a fairly significant impact.
