Pixel,

Your logic doesn't work. You say that the difference in manufacturing the disks is the reason why there is a difference in price, but it's the BR players that are so much more expensive than the HD-DVD players, not the disks.

I also agree with Mr.Peabody, I rarely watch the extra stuff or turn on the director's commentary when I'm watching the movie. All that extra stuff is not a justification to raise the costs of a disk (even regular DVDs pull that crap to get people to buy the movie again). The only thing I would like to see more of is that the deleted scenes are actually incorporated into the movies, like they did with LOTR. That way you get something worthwhile for spending money on the disk when you've already seen the movie in the theater. I know some scenes are cut for good reason, but then why put them in at the end, uncorrected for light, sound, and screen size. This is just laziness on the part of the studios - either put it in, or leave it out. I just want to watch the #$@^$%$# movie.
