If it's one of my favorite movies, I'll do it.

Normally for the picture and sound. But I also like bonus features.. like if it was originally a 1 disc. I love buying those 2 disc unrated cuts and such.

Picture & Sound #1 for me. Why buy something on Blu just because it's on Blu? I bought a Blu Ray player because I want my movies on High Def, not because I want to rebuy the same films I already own with a picture & sound quality I already have.

A lot of early Blu-ray movies on 25GB discs suffered from low quality encodes. And pretty much 90% of WB releases do with a few exceptions(Harry potter 5 and Blade Runner come to mind).

I'd like PQ to be upgraded on a bunch of previous releases..I'd re-buy them.

I bought the remastered Fith Element Blu-ray when it got double dipped.
