HELP an Old Fella Please
Trying to order a DVD ...........
Harry Potter and The Prisoner of Azkaban (Single Disc Edition) = £6:99
Harry Potter and The Prisoner of Azkaban (Two Disc Edition) = £17:99
Now, the difference is clearly that one has 2 discs, the other just 1.
But, why the HUGE difference in price? I can imagine that the 2 disc version has 'extras' ............... am I right?
And why pay for 'extras' when all you will ever do is watch the film??

Some extras are ok... but they wont ever be worth £11 of your pension. Harry Potter is available in both 4:3 and 16:9 formats so make sure that you dont inadvertantly buy a pan&scan... (which has been the cheaper of the early films).

The extra's wont be worth the extra money - they rarely are.
