Of course. HBO knows that they have the #1 show on TV, and they know people are willing to shell out the cash to get it on DVD (though there are those of us with burners, hehe). They've set the price just high enough so that people will be willing to buy it, especially at *sale*, but not so high that they can't turn a profit because no one will buy it. Besides, they are making a HUGE profit off these DVD's.

You're right. Capitalist pigs what they are. I feel like not buying it.

I wish that for the money we spend on these suckers that they'd include some more special features than just commentary. Some deleted scenes/bloopers if there are any. Making of features, casting, etc.

I just wanted to announce that yesterday I finally received my Season 5 DVD in the mail. $65 and change for the DVD, tax & shipping

Since Amazon charges for their orders (up to a certain price), they actually work out as one of the most expensive online retailers...at least over here. Anybody actually bought theirs from Amazon?

I buy somethings on amazon and it's always cheaper (usually) than other online retailers (except of course for eBay at times)

You should have started from season 1

Yes, Amazon does seem to be cheaper than most other retailers both online and local in many cases. I remember they had the Scarface box considerably cheaper at release than most. I pretty much check Amazon before buying any DVD just to see what the average price is, so when I go 'round to local shops, I can get an idea as to which is the best place to go...

MmmmMmmmm, free market bitches! It will get you drunk!

I usually buy my stuff from BestBuy because of my Reward Zone membership there, but that's when I'm in Texas. When I'm up here in New York I'm more price conscience because Wal-Mart is closer than BestBuy, plus I have the Internet. But when I go back to Texas in August I'll just purchase everything from BestBuy
