Ummmm... hello?!?!?! How many years into DVDs existence did we pay $27 for new releases? Oh yeah, up until the release of Blu-ray! Hell, DVD new releases are still being prices at $23-$25. So, what's the point of this thread? I say, get over it and spend $4 less on the DVD if you have such a problem. To me, that extra $4 is worth the quality difference between DVD and Blu-ray.

I've seen about a dozen of these "I'm going to ***** and moan about something that pisses me off" threads in the last 4 or 5 days. I've always been keen on gaining a bit of perspective when it comes to issues that I find start to get me emotional (aside from religion and politics... those two I'd rather avoid being brainwashed by gaining any perspective other than my own). And this is DEFINITELY a situation where gaining a little perspective is needed.
