Oh, yeah...
The $119.99 per Star Trek set from me and many others made sure that today, people can buy TNG and DS9 for a reasonable price, just as the Buffy and X-Files fans of yesterday dealing with the $149.95 MSRP made sure I could pick up the Buffy and X-Files sets for between 10 and 20 bucks apiece just last year.
Those first week sales are always the most important (from what we've all heard at places like this). The only place that isn't true is (surprise!) Shout Select, who have said that they like to give those specific sets some time to sell before making a final decision on releasing the next season.
