I can confirm that the re-releases have amaray packaging. I went to Best Buy today to grab a few things. I was in the HBO section and noticed that all of their copies of Boardwalk Empire S3 on blu was in a amaray case with slip box, similar to WB's packaging for The Big Bang Theory. The case is about half the thickness of the digipak, maybe a little less. And no dvd's are included. Blu-ray and HD digital copy only. This was the only series and season that I saw in the new amaray case. Everything else on the shelf was a digipak.
I usually prefer amaray cases but, on the HBO releases, I tend to like the digipaks better. The thing I don't like is that they're doing a packaging change mid series on these. It kinda sucks for us OCD collectors. Lol
