Hmm. I’d rather they keep them in standard def and cram as many episodes on each BR disc as they can rather than upscale, but okay.
Steve has said the bulk of the costs are in the content licensing rather than the discs, so fewer wouldn’t drop the price really. And apparently the blu-ray disc association doesn’t like it when main features are actually SD.
And it will be worth it where the film exists, plus titles and credits.
