Yeah I was one of those who bought Seasons 1-3 Blu-Rays at the Amazon.com $9.99 sale and sold off my Seasons 1-3 DVD's shortly afterwards.
I'm not expecting season 4 to drop to $9.99 anytime soon, so if it does drop to $20-25, then I will probably bite.

I missed all of this season, but I'll be in for the Blu-ray. I'm going to hold off for a low Amazon price, though.

Has anyone experienced any technical problems with their set? I noticed Amazon has pulled it and posted this warning:
Item Under Review
While this item is available from other marketplace sellers on this page, it is not currently offered by Amazon.com because customers have told us there may be something wrong with our inventory of the item, the way we are shipping it, or the way it's described here. (Thanks for the tip!)
We're working to fix the problem as quickly as possible.
Season Four

I'm not sure why but Amazon does this at times even for products that we've been sure were fine.

Again? This has hit several BDs in the past few weeks.

I had three sets come damaged to me. Each one had the same problem (torn front cover under the slip cover) and I complained to Amazon.
Wonder if that was the reason they pulled it...

I'm going to assume that your specific problem may be due to packaging related issues over Amazon doing it.

I too did not get a chance to see this past season when it originally aired; however, I so far have seen the first two discs ( Episodes#1-6) agree with Geofferson...I think so far, its the best season...I might need to look into buying them when the price goes down.

My set arrived in fine condition. I haven't watched it yet, so I can't say there aren't any playback issues, but the packaging is fine. Although, I didn't order from Amazon.
Actually, I almost forgot, I had to order it twice from Chapters in Canada. The first time they sent me the DVD version, even though I'd ordered the BD. Second time was the correct item.
I really enjoyed the season, which makes it all the more painful that the next season won't be here until 2012.

I thought that I read that there is an episode where the dialog that should be coming from the front speakers suddenly starts coming out of the rears.
No one else has heard this? I haven't had time to check mine out yet, but Amazon is selling them again and I can't believe they received new discs, so I don't know what to think.
Maybe, if the problem is with all the discs, they contacted the manufacturer and were told no fixes would be made, so they could sell them again.
Or they might be planning to fix the problem and will offer an exchange, so Amazon is selling them as is, knowing customers will have the chance to get corrected copies at some point.
The only other possibility is there never was a problem.
