I suspect they are having the same problem as they will have with movies like Gladiator and Titanic when they get released on Blu-ray. The titles have already been severely devalued in people's minds by the DVDs selling for next to nothing. You can get the complete Bond box set on DVD for £85 from play. When the Bond Blu-rays are released they are £18 each, so £378 for the same 21 movies as are in the DVD box set. It's asking a lot for people to see a Blu-ray as being worth 4-5 times the price of the DVD. When the Bond DVD set was selling for £300 a few years back they might have had a chance of charging close to £400 for a Blu-ray set, but I just can't see it in the context of an £85 DVD set.
