Season 1 Blu Ray/DVD

Anyone picking it up?

Maybe we can use this to keep track of the best price.

Amazon £32

CDWow €39

Anywhere cheaper?

I will buy Season 1 but am going to wait a couple of months and get it for half the price.

I'd like to watch it all again before the next season starts. I could just download it but I'm definitely getting the blu-rays at some point so might as well do that now.

Hoping I can pick it up over the weekend in HMV or the likes.

Is that for the Blu-Ray? And when will they stock it?

I'm torn between just buying the DVD version now (and being able to watch it on my laptop) or buying a Blu Ray player + the Blu Ray version (which seems to have all the fantastic extra features) later on.

Yeah, I'm seriously considering buying a blu-ray player for one TV show Sad.

Another more expensive version on Amazon, but this one has an extra disc:

Game of Thrones - Season 1 (Includes 'Creating The Visuals' Bonus Disc - Amazon.co.uk Exclusive) [Blu-ray][Region Free]

Get a PS3 and use it as your media centre.

I was in HMV on Grafton Street yesterday and they had signs up saying it was going on sale today so I presume it was.

Tesco have it for €39.99

X-ray-Vision have it for DVD 39.99 and Blu-Ray €49.99. All on shelves now.

But the nerd in me wants to see if HMV or anyone else does the special packaging. I want the Starks on mine.
