Just for kicks, I've been checking Firefly's sales rating on Amazon. Two days ago it was at 68. Yesterday, after the announcement about the movie, it jumped to 45. This morning it was 41, and as of this posting it is 35. Most excellent.

Dear diary, today I was pompous and my sister was crazy.

Yeah, I helped a bit with that rating myself. Had to order another set when I heard the BDM news.

Recommend Firefly under other DVD titles on Amazon to help get the word out.

I already converted a couple of Browncoats at work. you, Fox TV.

They can have my "Firefly" DVDs when they pry them from my cold, dead fingers....

The rank is now at 28.

I was able to convert quite a few people at Cantr I think.

Oh, and play Cantr II at www.cantr.net.

Haken has a page that is automated to keep track of the DVD rating here...

http://www.fireflyfans.net/amazon.asp

If you click on the link on that page to buy the DVD, he gets a small cut of the deal. Another good way to donate to fireflyfans.net and keep it floating...

Like Fireflyfans.net?
Haken needs a new development system. Donate.

Thanks for the link Jasonzzz. I did not know Haken had set that up.

The movie news is definitely causing a new batch of DVD sales. Hopefully it is people that heard the news & have not yet seen the series. We can always use the ticket sales when the movie opens.

Much coolness about ranking.

One question, though, does anyone know what period this ranking covers? Is it for the month? For a quarter? For all time?

Thanks muchly

Nice to see that It's going up. Why did it go down in the first place?

It's a normal distribution -- when a popular DVD first comes out, interest and purchases are very high, and then settle down into a lower, steadier rate, until/unless another event (like a movie, big ad campaign, etc.) pushes up interest again.

Good. Thanks for the update.
