That's a very good point, Brian.
Me, personally, I rarely ever buy a Criterion title the day it comes out.
I wait until it drops to $20.
As someone who has been buying the Star Trek: The Next Generation
seasons when they go on sale for about $50, I know first-hand the quality
of work that...
Yes....
...and here is where the studios really make things unfair (and I see it more
with modern television releases)...
They sell single season Blu-rays at the end of the current year's run. But
then, after the entire series has run its course, they put out a complete series
set with loads...
Larry,
I understand the reason for the pricing.
However, with everyone knowing how Amazon price reductions work, and
the fact many already own these episodes on DVD, it certainly is more beneficial
for most to wait for a better bargain.....
....that is, if they are willing to wait for it.
Matt, thank you for the review.
I own all these episodes on DVD. I am also ignoring this set
due to its outrageous pricing. In a year to three it will be dirt
cheap on Amazon. I can wait till then.
Happy to learn the set lives up to expectations.
