I count 79 releases in about 70 days. Seems like a pretty good rate for this point.
I don't have much idea how many Lost sold on DVD, but that seems like a pretty big release for people beyond forums like this. --Darin

When I saw Lost in the store on SD DVD, I thought "What's the point?" since it is an HD show, so it is good to know they are releasing it in HD.

And yes... You'd be surprised how many people would rebuy a show in HD... Especially one that was made with it in mind. fitprod |

"Again?" This is the first time this show will be offered the way it was presented on TV networks, ie, in HD. I have not and will not buy a program aired in HD on SD material. |

I still haven't finished revisiting Lost: Season 1 and I already want the BD version! I demoed the DVD at a store recently and while they were amazed at the quality of it on 30"++ plasmas and LCDs, all I could muster was "Right."
I expect to wow them with the BD version. If only I could afford a PS3 first! fuad |

I haven't seen the show (been waiting 'casue I expected it to be an HD release at some point)- however my enthusiasm for finally seeing it is starting to wan because I'm getting the vibe from my friends (who do watch it) that it is pretty much a typical Abrams Teaser show- i.e. great set up and complications from week to week, but never a sense of real resolution. Complicating a situation in interesting ways is easy if you have the luxury of never having to pay it off. But at some point (like in Alias) most people are going to get tired of it and just lose interest. It's a great premise, but without a point in sight, it's probably a frustrating one too. (I could be way off base here, I'm just going by the reactions and comments I hear from my firends, and my experience with Alias- a show I went nuts over until it was clear that Abrams was simply spinning his wheels without any real destination in mind) but we'll see. |

I don't see some of these titles at www.blu-ray.com/movies
Bram Stoker's Dracula and Lost aren't there on the list I'm looking at.

LOST? Yes yes yes!!! But $200?? No way. The DVD set is $59.99 retail, so the HD version (going by movie titles) should not be more than $10 or $20 more (retail). Hopefully season 2 should not be far behind...
Can't wait! Excellent news! Need more TV series! ![]()

TV shows are the one thing that could make me switch or atleast buy a BR. A lot of my favorite shows are from Fox (Buffy, Angel, Prison Break, Arrested Development etc.) and if they release those on BR, then you might have a new owner.

What is it, about 5 or 6 discs? I would expect at least an extra $70 on top of the $60 msrp. As I implied before, the other format can afford a slighter premium over the sd version in the case of large sets, but Bd is hog-tied (right now anyway) with (much) higher replication costs. That cost is going to be passed on to the consumer- especially if its a small niche base that is somewhat starved for good content. |

I am very excited about getting Lost on Blu-ray. However, since I already own the first season, price is going to be the factor for me. Season Five of Smallville was available on HD-DVD for $50 from Amazon and I didn't upgrade my SD set. I have a feeling that Lost on BR will cost more than that, and if it's $75-100 for it then I would rather put my money towards four new releases instead.

Well that is just a forum and I know he is a Mod and all, but where is the concrete evidence? What is his source? That site looks like it is just a fan run website.
When BV has a press release or something, then I'll believe it.

I'd pay $100 for Season 1 of LOST, but that is the absolute maximum. And I am not a Blue-Ray owner yet. I'm planning on jumping in sometime next Summer and will likely get a PS3 (my first game console since Nintendo).
