I was mildly exaggerating, but I mean stuff like this: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00CTSDDVO/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_nS_ttl?_encoding=UTF8&colid=2TO0N2MFVR7LV&coliid=I

I don't mind the 2-disc BR/DVD bundles, I just wish I had the option to buy a 1-disc BR instead. It gets even harder when you want a 1-disc 3D BR.

What these bundles are telling us---and they're fairly common in US market anime---is that the price of pressing a DVD is so cheap it's better to make one SKU with both. Probably also encourages people to buy a Blu-Ray player as well if they still haven't.

  And that's fine, but the bundle seems to be used to justify higher prices. "Oh, well it would be $10, but you get both a Blu-ray and a DVD, so we have to charge you $20"

    Bleah. I haven't noticed that in the US anime market, but prices are all over the map as companies seek better/sustainable business models. Anime suffered from the general decline in DVD sales, and the decrease in retail outlets, like The Musicland Group (Musicland, Sam Goody, Suncoast Motion Picture Company, On Cue, and Media Play superstores) going poof after Best Buy bought them.
