Got it today and love it. The SE set is awesome. Have to watch the 3D at home on the plasma to see if its better than the LCD at work, didnt seem to work too well. Glad to see the episode is slightly extended from the broadcast version.

The 3D scene didnt work on my plasma either. Its all blurry or you still see double. Meh, it was a gimmick that didnt work. The rest of the disc is awesome so far.

Has anyone gotten the digital copy to download to iTunes? Yes, I have the newest version 7.6 and when it gets to the end of the download, I get an error "There was a problem downloading "Blue Harvest / Family Guy". An unknown error has occurred (-50)."

I like the extras so far, the 3d scene looked kinda messed up on my LCD. I guess ill try it on a regular tube tv later.

I can't speak for the regular edition release, but the box-set release didn't have choices in audio tracks. As far as I could find, there's only one audio track for the feature with all the swearing intact.
As for the 3-D scene, it looks like it hasn't gone well for plasma and LCD...and now you can chalk up one for DLP. It didn't look good on mine, either.

And
Can Fox be more "innovative" than having a "digital or should I say computer based video download" special feature

If the single disk has a similar-looking slipcover, I'd probably have that version by now.

The SE really isn't as big as I thought it was going to be. It's actually the same exact size as the Star Wars Trilogy box set.

I ended up getting the Standard Edition. Pretty much all I wanted out of the Special Edition was the booklet. I didn’t want to pay $12 extra for a 20-page booklet. Does anyone happen to have scans of it so I can see what I’m missing?
