  As it was only released on BD a couple of months ago, it's unsurprising this is the cheapest you've seen it :P

  I'm going to wait until you can get all 7 seasons in a box set.

    You'll be waiting a while, since they have to go back to the original film and reproduce the series scene by scene, because all the mixing was done to video, not to film. It's a painstaking and expensive.

      I've already got them on DVD so I'm in no hurry.

        Ditto. I'm waiting for the BD box set to be under $150. Which means probably 5-7 years from now. Which I'm fine with, 'cause it's not like they're putting awesome new commentaries on them or anything.

        If they'd done, like, 4 commentary tracks per episode with different groups of actors and writers (TV directors and producers are rarely interesting and almost always just describe what's happening on screen) I'd be buying them at full price the instant they were released. But this is just a higher def version of the DVDs with some crappy docu-interviews.

    I think they're only planning on doing two seasons a year. God knows how long it'll be before they get to DS9.

    The quality of the video and sound is properly mastered BD quality, but they haven't re-made the special effects or anything.

    There are a couple of extra special features that amount to around 100 minutes of behind the scenes and interview stuff, but that's it.

    See this review for more detail.

    Considering the show was shot with the intention of being shown on TVs in the late 80s/early 90s on those old CRTs with inbuilt speakers, everything is even flat TV lighting and slow moving dollies, panning shots or simply static shots and over-over two shots with the dialogue being the most important aspect of the audio… I don't think higher quality video and sound will enhance the experience all that much. The show wasn't built around how it looked or sounded, but it's content.

      See this review for more detail.

      SOLD! just got my old's to get me this for x-mas.

      I watched the first episode as a mate had the pre-release sample disk that has 3 episodes or something and I was blown away. The picture leaves the DVD copies and whats shown on Channel 11 looking like they have being left in teh sun too long. And the DTS-HD soundtrack blew me away on my HT, movie quality.
