I don't have to go shopping to get the DVD. I don't have to drive to the Mall, I don't have to pay shipping and handling, and it's delivered as fast -- or was, in the past -- as if I were watching it on the TV. (I don't watch TV.)
Yeah, but who pays shipping anymore? Amazon doesn't charge it on orders over $25, and DeepDiscount.com doesn't charge it at all. The delay to receive it is a point, but good things come to those who wait—and until they do arrive, there's BitTorrent. :)
And iTunes doesn't blank all the monitors that aren't showing it;
Maybe it doesn't for you; you're probably on a Mac. But it sure does for me on Windows.
I miss the extras, true, but not hard enough to want to drive to the store to get 'em.
I wouldn't get 'em at the store anyway—they're cheaper online.
I'm poking iTunes now, though. The DVD's out that has these four episodes on it. Where's the iTunes episodes? *poke*poke*poke*
