The Lord of the Rings trilogy is a nice example of a double dip...
So far, they just dipped once, when the EEs get released they will dip the 2nd time (and probably 3rd and 4th too, as I expect the EEs to be 3 ultra expensive separate boxes, one for each film). 

 A double-dip is the exact same movie released twice.

The EE's wouldn't be considered a double dip.

I don't know.

While a double dip doesn't neccessarily mean content was held back to make a second (or third, etc.) release more appealing... I think anytime content (especially the preferred cut of a film) IS deliberately held back, that it is not only certainly a double dip, but the worst kind of double dip.

 But, in this case, it was ANNOUNCED that they would be released later.  They're following the same release schedule as the original DVD release.  Plus, they don't repeat extras.  I think it's great...and I have no interest in the LOTR movies.  Once was good enough.
