Random double-dip sets like EBB, aimed at general consumers, help bring in additional revenue for the LTs, permitting - as Jerry Beck has frankly stated - the restoration of more unreleased cartoons for collectors. One hand is washing the other.
I personally hope they do more of these sets, and get many more unreleased cartoons restored and issued as a result.
