Discovery Store has the Planet Earth & Sunrise Earth HD DVD Set for $50 - $5 code EML2008 + $3 shipping = $48 shipped. Now you can enjoy your breakfast to sunrise scenes set throughout the World, then kick back and enjoy Sigourney Weaver's narrative through the 11-part series of Planet Earth. Then lament about your defunct HD DVD player.

    I'm surprised they still cost this much. HD-DVD issues aside, Sunrise Earth is a great series... not something I'd want to own on DVD, however... more of a Sunday morning relaxation show

    Sunrise earth is beautiful but the most boring screensaver of a video in history.

    Discovery Atlas HD-DVD is actually selling for a good price on eBay.

    I wish I took advantage of deal on the BBC Planet Earth on HD-DVD.

    @the lawyer
    You think BD prices are going to drop now? Good luck with that...

    People joke about HD DVD being "obsolete", but you can get a decent player and collection of HD movies for a fraction of what BluRay costs...

    What, exactly, did BlewRay win? No traction in the market, sky-high prices, unfinished "standard" that keeps changing. I didn't buy either HD-DVD or BR, and I sure as heck ain't gonna buy BlewRay even with its hollow victory. There are better open formats out there. Silly discs that have to be manually swapped are relics. Multi-disc changers are worse in many ways. Instant-access to my entire collection is where it's at, baby!

    This DC version of Planet Earth has not gotten reviews as good as has the BBC version. The content is a bit less with the DC version and it is listed as being recorded in 1080i - the BBC version is 1080p. I'm not sure how the different 1080s affects things but the reviewers claim the 1080p-BBC gave the better video. Also, since it's a BBC production, you're probably better off with the narrator who has the better British accent. Stiff upper lip and all that.

    I bought the DC version, from Discovery, before I knew all these details - I paid $25 with free shipping.
