For those wondering why these are HD DVD/DVD combination discs.
Paramount Home Entertainment knows fans are upset that that they have had to buy this series multiple times before. This HD DVD set was done so that fans with HD DVD players would get the best presentations. However, for fans without HD DVD players, these consumers would get the best value. One set to buy once that would play on their existing players and when they do upgrade to HD DVD, they already have a set to enjoy.
