Paramount Pictures is selling Seagate Technology hard drives with the latest Star Trek, GI Joe,Nacho Libre and Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius come pre-loaded. They have a digital lock that requires a code that can be purchased online for $10 to $15 each
The 500GB hard drive will sell for a special promotional price of $100 and the claim that "an empty 500 GB Seagate hard drive usually sells for $140.
Although Newegg sells a similar 500GB Seagate for $54.99 with free shipping.
This must be similar to the deal Paramount cut for putting movies on USB Sticks.

Ironically I pitched this to Western Digital in 1999 and Maxtor R&D back in Feb 2001 and they show
