What percentage of folks own a Blu-Ray player, and what percentage of that relatively small number are UFO fans?  I'm guessing that the powers that be don't see enough money to be made yet in such an endeavour.  Perhaps afew more years down the road, though.  : )

Perfect reason to put them on Blu-Ray, wondering why it hasnt been done yet.

8.5Gb(DVD) vs 50Gb(Blu Ray)

Everything is a trade off,

The Umbrella releases had more extras I think so it takes up more space on

the DVD thereby taking it away from the main feature. So it needs to be

compressed more. Even though there are better compression methods codecs

available you still have conform to standards to ensure maximum

compatibility across all players or else you would have too many returns

from the DVD's not working.
