Amazon has "slim line" DVDs of Angel & Buffy (and many other things, too) for $20 a season
what's the difference between the regular sets and the "slim line" ones? because i was just about to use xmas money to buy the complete series box set, but i won't bother if i can get the remaining three seasons i need for $20 each.
The discs are the same, tiggy. But rather than those big fold-out boxes, they come in the
Firefly
cases, I think.
Personally, I like the way the big fold-out boxes look next to each other on my shelf.
oooh! really? i hate those damn fold-out things! the centers always break and the dvds fall out and get scratched. annoys me to death.
I think i just found a use for my xmas money.
But don't the slim-lines have fewer extras?
Well, there was that woman in season 7. . . but really it was Cordy and then Anya.
I wouldn't call it dating, but there was Faith.
Everything I'm looking at on Amazon and other sites lists the same extras as the old version; I think it's just the packaging that's different.
Oh, but I should mention also that they're not available immediately -- 4 to 6 weeks to ship. But $20, so.
Ah. Awesome, then. I have the first season of Angel, but never liked the remainder of the seasons enough to pay $40-$60 a pop. I also hate the fold-out versions, so this could be pretty cool.

yeah, i'm in no big hurry. i've done without them for this long.
ETA: thanks for the heads up, Strega!
Excellent! I still haven't cleaned my soggy copies, I think this will make replacement cost-effective.
Strega -- that's great, because I STILL haven't found the last disk for Season 2 of Buffy. I may need to get another set.
