Nah, it's really not as bad as I make it seem. So far I have picked up 29 discs for a grand total of $215.20 out of pocket. The others are a bunch of pre-orders that will come later. This Warner announcement came at the perfect time for me to build a collection very quickly and very cheaply.

Ahh, alright. I am tempted to try the Amazon Prime, I think there is an offer for 3 months free.

Amazon Prime is DEFINITELY worth it for HD movies... Amazon frequently has *the* cheapest prices on Blu-Ray, constantly, you pay no tax, the movies get here quick as hell (I get them in a day with two day shipping because I'm so close to the warehouse), and you save on gas / time with getting it retail.

I just recently got Spider-Man HD Trilogy from the Amazon sale, watched Spider-Man 3, and the picture was amazing. Decent movie, too.

Got some of those on Amazon's BOGO and got price adjustments as well, great deal. Also, Prime does rock!

Just got this too, I probably would have skipped it if not for the Amazon price & Adam's review. I'm very impressed by this release. Best unique packaging for a BD yet, and probably the best audio of any BD I own.

Also, a question, I've got a PS3, do I need to switch from Bitstream to PCM to listen to the trueHD track? I left it on, and my receiver recognized it as Dolby digital (if I recognized the symbol correctly). I seem to remember reading the ps3 doesn't bitsteam truehd? either way, the audio was still amazing...
