The first ever UK dvd I bought, with no special features, was £19.99. That was back in the day, when people weren't so tight-fisted!

I think that years and years ago I paid around 20 quid for what I think may have been my first DVD. The only time I would consider spending that amount these days is in those instances when I'm looking for something that is more difficult to acquire and I don't really have much choice.

True. I saw both the dvd and blu-rays of The Woman in Adsa for £10 each. How times change.

I balk at paying more than £10 for a DVD...unless it's a 'Doctor Who' one of course!

New, or old Who? I wouldn't even pay for New Who (and I do like it)

When there is an alternative, that's not even a question...

£5 is often my limit on Blu-rays, nevermind DVDs. Then again, if we're talking a boxset or limited edition, which probably includes a few of the Shameless DVD releases, then that is a different matter. I'd cave in at £15, depending on how much I want the film or like it.

Still £19 is too much even for a steelbook Blu-Ray in my opinion. Not even HMV's pre-orders ask for that kind of money.

Saying that Lou, I did see a Kiss (the rock band) live cd in hmv once. It was in normal standard casing. It was live in japan (i think). And the price was...85 pound. That's right eighty five pound for a cd. The same cd which came free with Kiss's latest album Sonic Boom. 85 pound. You could buy kiss tickets for less than that. It haunted me for a while.
