$30 for a dvd! Are the nuts! What a scam, I think its terrible that WB feels it necessary to try and rip off HP fans just because they know how much we love the series and will pay the price. Bunch of jerks! When the first few movies came out we got the movies and the second disc with features for one great low price. Now you only get the movie or you can pay more for the two disc set. That makes me so mad-WE ARE NOT HERE FOR YOU TO RIP US OFF! And after all the money that your HP fans made you, you would think that would be enough! Money hungry gits!
End rant...

If the release date of the DVD is on December 11th, then Canada will be the same. I am gonna buy The 2-Disc Special Edition DVD!!! I'm rather interested what deleted scenes they have. The personal set tour by Tonks sounds cool by far...
Cheers!

HD/DVD combo means it is in both HD and standard format, but on one disc. If it was in HD, it would say HD-DVD. That means we will probably be able to watch the in-movie feature, which is cool.
