Exactly. The AVCHD versions all fit on dual layer DVDs and they are absolutely "crystal clear" IMHO.

 

 Oh yeah?  what size screen are you watching it on?  Just because it looks "crystal clear" and "blows away the DVD version" doesn't mean it's an up-to-snuff HD version.  If you take that version and compare it to a proper blu-ray encoding, it's not going to compare.  I'll guarantee that.  Plus, the sound needs to be uncompressed.

Don't get me wrong, it's a great interim solution because, for the moment, that's all we have.  But eventually the official release will (quality-wise) blow it away.
