shrink-flation has been going on at supermarkets for about 20 years

I'm far to polite to say it, but others might sugest that you import if you believe that to be the better option

Probably the most shocking is chocolates.

Regular bars these days are the same as the small sizes I remember as a child.

But pretty much all food per item has shrunk in size apart from those defined like a pint of milk (although some convenience stores now use the smaller 1/2 litre) and 6 eggs (although seen packs of 5 in some stores).

I'm not aware of a 1/2 litre of milk, I'm surprised it exists as a proper pint is only slightly bigger. I usually have the 2 litre aprox unless I can get the 1 litre for a better price.

I seriously interested, where have you seen a box of 5 eggs?

This is a Sony release, so BD is included. Universal not including BDs.

US still remains the best for Universal / Paramount releases.

You forgot * after Paramount, since some of releases in Spain/Italy/Nordics are better than US.

From encoding perspective, yes but if you find Italian dub/sub on the US release, it becomes the better release due to inclusion of slip, BD and digital copy.

Italian releases also come with slips and the BD, and they go for peanuts after 3-4 months, if you're willing to wait.

Yep but digital code is key for me. Convenience trumps for me at my age.
