I was checking retail this weekend hoping to find an advance copy. No such luck.
But I noticed the themed discs still for sale.
Sony should pull these off the shelves. Having a single series for sale will increase the odds of new, casual fans collecting the series (I wouldn't consider us causal fans).
And continuing to sell these hated theme discs will just annoy future customers, like it did us. Why not just give new customers the 1, new & better choice? This numbered, chronological series will be easy for them to follow.
If Sony keeps selling the themed discs, casual fans will be checking episode titles from the new collections against nearly 2 dozen of the themed discs.
They are going to get frustrated and may leave the store w/ out buying anything.
