Even though I already own the dvd boxset I am very tempted..... http://www.play.com/DVD/Blu-ray/4-/6033697/Band-Of-Brothers-Limited-Edition-Collectible-Tin/Product.html . Bit of a wait though No


Should look amazing in HD, and just imagine what the HD soundtrack will be like.


All I need now is a nice lotto win and I can upgrade my old Denon2105 with a nice HD amp.

I'm in the same position. Band of Brothers was all shot on film, to cinema quality, so it should look - and sound - stupendous on Blu-ray. We're definitely getting it in as a test disc!

I love Band of Brothers.

Darn it, I'm tempted, and I haven't even got a Blu-ray player yet...

Same here - although Amazon has it the same price so it could be a general price decrease for the set.

£20 in HMV right now for the original box set. Well, it was in Glasgow today, so assuming this pans out through the rest of their branches.

Ah Mr Blackmore - what a fine guitarist you are; one of the very best and oft overlooked. Now stop with the nonny nonny stuff and give us some more rock!

You might want to hold off. If everyone who has the original box-set decides to get Blu-ray, there could well be loads of the DVD version turning up for peanuts on eBay.
