Default I'm gonna hate this sub-forum.

Because this is gonna make me go broke! Even living in Canada, I have access to about half of the available steelbooks in this forum right now. I'm so going broke.

Can someone explain to me what a steelbook is, and why many people are crazy about them?

What is a Steelbook?

SteelBook is the new exclusive packaging for your high profile music, video & games releases. Steelbook consists of a metal exterior and an inner core of plastic and has the same dimensions as a standard DVD style case.

-taken from Steelbook.com

So its basicly a tin box same size as a blu-ray case but slightly thinker. Movie and features are the exact same as regular blu-ray, but they are limited in quantity and stores often sell out and some titles become hard to get and can double in price (i am legend from canada)

You're right. There's not much going on in this thread. Except for the fact that I've already prooved my point, and just bought 10,000 BC from Ebay.
