I buy a LOT of TV boxsets and most of the shows I like are not out on BD, and many either never will be, or will be out in a lonnng time (Star Trek DS9, Buffy, Twin Peaks, Sex and the City, Friends, The West Wing, X-Files, Veronica Mars, Prime Suspect, The Wire, BBC shows like The Office, Fawlty Towers, This Life...). I'm pretty happy to consider the DVDs of many of these definitive. Some others I know may well come out eventually (the HBO ones especially) but I'm happy having the complete DVD sets of them for now. The only one I'll probably wait for is Sopranos, but at this rate I may cave and buy the DVD. I still buy DVDs for shows not available on BD, and have no problem doing so. I want to buy The Simpsons on DVD and the existence of BD will not stop me cos I don't expect releases of the older seasons for ages.


More recent shows/shows which are available though I do want to get on BD but haven't been able to afford to yet (BSG, Dollhouse, Dexter, Weeds, Mad Men, True Blood).... I would not get these on DVD.

When it comes to films I'll only buy on BD if they are out. There are a few films I think will take ages to come out and if they are cheap, I will get them on DVD because I still like collecting films I like in general (recently I bought The Swimmer and 3 Women, 2 relatively obscure films which I wouldn't expect a BD release of for ages, and also the animated 101 Dalmations because it probably wont get a BD release for ages)

So basically I will buy on BD if available, or wait if there is a vague idea on when/if it will be released. For everything else, I'll get on DVD.
