It wasn't too long ago that Amazon.com launched a trade-in program for used video games, giving people a way to swap used games for Amazon.com gift-card credit. Now the online retailer is expanding the program to include used DVDs, HD DVDs and Blu-ray discs -- a sign that it sees trade-ins as a possible growth area in the recession.
Amazon's Movie & TV Trade-in site currently lists more than 4,000 DVD titles, nearly 6,00 Blu-ray titles, and just 10 HD DVD titles. Discs must be in good condition and valued at $10 or more. People can print a free shipping label and get Amazon gift-card credit deposited in their account.
Will Amazon include other items in the trade-in program? It's an interesting experiment, given that many consumers are reining in their spending and looking for deals.
