More studios move towards Blu-ray / DVD combo packs {Engadget HD}
Feb 23rd 2009 7:50PM I'm sure something low-tech could be fashioned, say, one of the many paper sleeves lying around from driver CD's, or, in classier fashion, a plastic jewel case. Either way, point taken, it's not a very good idea, as most people will want the original packaging (chapter list, ever-critical pictures, and overall tidy look). The ones that don't care are probably hitting up a torrent tracker, anyway. I guess offering this dual-packaging now, as opposed to when the format launched in Summer 2006, would be comparable to the PS3 offering backwards-compatibility *now*, when it matters less, versus at launch, when a dearth of PS3 games made BC highly desirable. Okay, that was an unnecessary analogy, but what really needs to happen is just for retail prices to drop. I've gotten almost all my movies on B1G1 specials, but the average consumer doesn't look out for those, and instead compares $5.99 bargain bin DVD's to $40 MSRP Blu-ray.

Feb 23rd 2009 6:02PM I know this would get my parents on board. Also, for people such as myself, who'll never watch the DVD version while I have BD, it would be nice to ebay the DVD copies (assuming the premium is smaller than the separate purchase of said DVD).
