Default Harry Potter 1-4 on BD

Hey guys, I am thinking of purchasing Harry Potter 1-4 on BD from Amazon.com through their BOGO deal, but I am somewhat reluctant. I hear that they are direct transfers (video) from their HD-DVD counterparts, but w/PCM audio I think. I do not mind spending the additional $40 for such a great deal, but with WB now on BD exclusively, what are the chances that WB will redo these titles for the maximum capability of that of BD? If they are going to remaster to the full capacity of BD, then I would just rather wait until then. What do you guys think about this?

For those that did purchase HP 1-4 on BD, what is your experience so far w/the A/V quality of them?

Well they are not likely going to re-release these until they have finished all 7 movies.
With that in mind, the HD DVD direct transfer is not bad, and is much better than the DVD.
If you want to wait until the last box set is out and they remaster it go ahead. But I think that, especially at the BOGO price, it is worth it.

No, they would only remaster them in HP 1-7 collector's edition, if not later, I think.
