The features missing on Blu-ray probably has a little something to do with all of the current BD players being unable to do PiP, something that won't be mandatory until the 1.1 specification for Blu-ray is released around the October time frame. It's this same reason that Batman Begins, Matrix and other cutting edge movies aren't seeing Blu-ray releases from Warner at all. Don't blame Warner for holding up BD versions of films or not releasing them with the special features when it is the BDA that can't get their act together. In other news Tosh recently announced that they sold 70K HD DVD players in under 7 weeks with their recent promotion pricing. They are now making those prices permanent.
