All I want is the movie itself in HD, I don't really care about the other crap.  I'm getting kind of sick of how so many blu-ray movies are only offered with the same extras as the special edition DVDs (sometimes more) and they like to stick you with a special edition price.  Just give me the movie itself at a reasonable price ($20).]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Brent]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 23rd 2009 1:32PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2009/06/23/paramount-launches-sapphire-series-line-of-premium-blu-ray-relea/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2009/06/23/paramount-launches-sapphire-series-line-of-premium-blu-ray-relea/</guid><description><![CDATA[Hmmm, 2 movies I might be pleased to buy.<br><br>(once the stupid launch price gets discounted down to something sane, hell we waited this long whats a little longer to save a third - half the price?)<br><br>I suspect I will be far from alone in this, it just goes to show how stupid this 'premium' BS is when the format is already being pitched at a premium.<br><br>Maybe this is their way of trying to recover some ground on those already shrinking on-line prices?<br>I reckon this will not work either.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Multi-format-mayhem]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 23rd 2009 1:49PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2009/06/23/paramount-launches-sapphire-series-line-of-premium-blu-ray-relea/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2009/06/23/paramount-launches-sapphire-series-line-of-premium-blu-ray-relea/</guid><description><![CDATA[Finally.
