If you don't feel like doing the math, 14 pounds is about $23.44.

Also note that £14 doesn't include shipping to the US.

It'll actually be a little less than £14 to the US, because they subtract out the VAT.

(But, in reality, as mentioned it'll be a little *more* than £14 because of the shipping.)

Alright, total with shipping for two of 'em comes to £18.05, or $30.21 as per XE.com -- basically $15 per title. Not half bad.

I noticed that the Almost Famous Blu-ray has been discontinued when I looked it up on Amazon's U.S. site. Is there a 10th anniversary edition coming next year?

Really? 10 years on that one already. God, I'm old. I hope we get a blu-ray release of this in 2010.

... as an added incentive, the UK release of CTHD comes in a steelbook.

Posters at Blu-Ray.com say they received the Amaray version of CTHD.

Does anyone know if the UK BD release of CTHD is different from the US release (in the three movie pack)? IIRC there were reports that the subtitles on the US BD had been dumbed down from the ones on the original DVD releases.
