I do too. I would've easily paid $40 more for this on UHD. The Blu-ray set is very good, but with ~3 hours of content per disc, I did see some banding in some scenes with complex lighting. I wish the episodes had a little more room to breathe compression-wise on some 4K discs, and of course HDR would be welcome, but this is still miles better than the Prime stream and the extras are fantastic.

Amazon has matched B&N's price of $39.99

Saw that up on the banner, yeah. Don't know why I assumed it was a 4K UHD release when Criterion announced it, but might still pick it up sometime.

It was 4K HDR when I streamed it, and you could argue the series maybe has a bit of filler that could really drag on rewatches, but it's still probably one of the best things I've seen on TV in the last decade and I'm a fan of shows that tell a complete story.
