Use that $5 coupon code you see on the main page and the equation drops to $64.99 for the set. Considering the cost of replication (15 discs) I'm guessing the lowest you'll see this is $50 this summer sometime if someone is willing to be the loss leader. I'm guessing we won't see singles as the theatrical editions are already released in singles.
In effect, the higher new release prices are the "I want it now" premium one pays if you can't wait. That's why I say one's price totally depends on when a person wants to watch it. Due to my backlog, most things get relegated to the "eventually" pile so paying the time premium doesn't make any sense. Plus my OCD over price drops makes me wait. My LOTR BD set prediction is $50 through summer, $40 on Black Friday (and probably again around Christmas), then $30-ish next spring... but it's just a guess. I think others have said roughly the same. Why? Because we've seen this pattern before on other trilogy releases.

And now you've got me singing the Veruca Salt I Want the World song. A true classic whose lyrics I won't repeat other than to say: "and if I don't get the things I am after, I'm going to scream."
