That header image isn’t just for show, today you can pick up From Up On Poppy Hill on blu-ray for just $13, which is the cheapest it’s ever been. While you’re at it, check out io9’s interview with Goro Miyazaki. [Amazon]

Pre-order The Hunger Games: Catching Fire [Blu-ray] | $25

The rare film that’s better than its book. You can pre-order your blu-ray copy of Catching Fire for $23 today, which is quite a bit better than its $40 MSRP. If you’re not an experienced Amazon pre-orderer, they offer pre-order low price guarantee, don’t charge you until the item ships, and may not charge tax depending on your state. [Amazon]

The Humble Bundle guys have put together their first AudioBook Bundle, a collection of 8 works you can have read to you for just $6, including Salman Rushdie’s The Satanic Verses and Cormac McCarthy’s Blood Meridian. If you’re unfamiliar with how Humble works, you decide how much you want to contribute and where you want that money to go, with the option of giving all of it to the authors or all of it to charity. [Humble]


A roguelike game is, in many ways, the opposite of an audiobook. These six games, including The Binding of Isaac, certainly aren’t going to read to you, but they are a great selection of titles that will reward your perseverance, and 4 of the 6 are Mac-compatible. [Humble]
