It's been a while since I've heard/seen a new announcement in this series. I know many aren't interested in this line, because it simply recycles titles that have already been released, it's still a very important tool in keeping the films it contains in circulation - on pressed discs when they may just as easily have been bumped to the Archive.

A few of the older sets are OOP - not a good sign, but the majority are still out and can be had on Amazon for as little as $9 or $10 - a bargain for 4 movies.

I think it is a good sign when sets are OOP. It means they have sold out which gives the studios an incentive to continue issuing discs.
