Take a look at the screenshot above that was taken from a recent MyPoints.com survey that has been making the internet rounds. The survey question simply asks which of the listed products the survey taker currently owns. Simple enough, but do you notice anything that just doesn't look right? No, we aren't talking about the Vornado Vacuum Cleaner (though it does sound suspicious), look one line below that. For whatever reason, this MyPoints.com survey lists an Xbox 360 with Blu Ray Disc Player as a survey option. An odd survey choice seeing that a Blu-ray Xbox 360 doesn't eveb exist. Does MyPoints.com know something we don't or did they just make a mistake? An even more import question to ask is whether these Blu-ray 360 rumors will ever come to an end.

I know a thing or two about surveys. They want to make sure the survey takers are paying attention so they sometimes give an answer that can't possibly be. Once the survey taker chooses that answer then "I'm sorry but you are not qualified to take this survey" will pop up. I used to take these surveys all the time at wrinsider cuz they gave out free giftcards and stuff.

What if you died at your computer desk and landed on your mouse button, hitting the "yes" im currently dead box? That would make it a truthful answer

yeah, as someone who has used these guys to do consumer research, I'm betting the question was Xbox 360 OR Blu Ray player (or XBox 360 or PS3 with blue ray player)
I mean, why field a survey about people owning something that doesn't exist. If they were hiding something, the survey would of let you rank Xbox 360 features including blu ray
