I wonder what the introduction of the new medium(s) like HD-DVD and/or Blu Ray will mean for future TV on DVD releases and what we as the consumer want from them?
I don't think every show that is released now will make it onto the next generation of discs. But the major shows will undoubtedly be re-released.
It'll obviously take some time till these mediums are available to the mass market but it might be fun to speculate a little on what the future will bring and perhaps let the industry know what we want.

- Obviously with more storage capacity the number of discs will me smaller per season which means leaner packages and less shelf space.
- Will we see new/more/different extras than on the current releases? It might be an incentive to buy a show you already have (they'd have to be good though).
- Is there a chance that some music issues might be resolved until then?
- Is a better picture quality possible for current bestsellers like Buffy, Angel, Alias and 24?
- It would be nice if they would put 16:9 and 4:3 versions of the shows on the disc where it is possible, so the viewer can chose him-/herself how she wants to watch.
- What about older shows, will they be just ported over from DVD or benefit as well with a better picture or sound?
- I definetly would prefer "full series" sets that are reasonably priced rather than season set releases. Makes more sense than to start collecting shows again that you already own.
