Hopefully it's priced where BoB was and not $89.99 like when it first came out

Re: The Pacific (HBO)

So is it worth getting this at Best Buy ($56) for the exclusive blu-ray?

Don't know, Target has its own exclusive blu-ray as well...

....which only contains one 15 minute featurette.

I wasn't crazy about the Band of Brothers tin, but the packaging for this set is BEAUTIFUL, at least on the exterior.

So is the Target exclusive an actual Blu-ray disc, or just a DVD? I picked up the BB one because it was an actual BD which is pretty uncommon for store exclusives.

Both of them said that they are actual Blu-ray discs.

On that note, if anyone picked up an exclusive and doesn't want the bonus disc, or watches it and feels that it's not worth keeping, I'd be happy to take it off your hands for a reasonable cost.

It's a Blu-Ray, but it seems rather pointless.

The blurb on the back of the BB exclusive reads...

Inside the Battle: Peleliu - An exclusive historical look into the battle of Peleliu. Combining exclusive historian and veteran interviews with real footage from the battle of Peleliu, this featurette illustrates the massive undertaking of the battle for Peleliu in the Pacific theater of World War II.

It's in 1080i and clocks in around 20 min.

Correct. There's a sticker on the front, and a separate, slim Blu-ray case shrink-wrapped to the package.

Has anyone had problems viewing the "Field Guide"?

When I try to access any of the content, the video drops out and I only get text information and audio only.
