Stargate Atlantis Complete Series on blu-ray?

Amazon has two different sets one being complete series and the other one seasons 1-5 ,however there is a 30 dollar price difference. Aren't these both the same?

Re: Stargate Atlantis Complete Series on blu-ray?

When checking on blu-ray.com, one was released by MGM the other by Visual Entertainment.

Here's what their review says on the difference:
Visual Entertainment has released the entire series for 'Stargate: Atlantis' to Blu-ray. This 20-disc collection is in many ways similar or identical to the set MGM released in 2011. The major, most obvious, and most notable difference is the absence of a lossless soundtrack here; MGM's set included DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 lossless tracks for every episode while Visual entertainment's set includes 5.1 and 2.0 lossy encodes.

The MGM is the set to get…last I heard the VEI Stargate sets had issues with the 5.1 tracks.

I don't normally watch tv shows with my stereo system so the soundtrack difference wouldn't be a big deal.
