You are right, POTC does come with 2 discs. I had to re-check since I vaguely recalled playing only one (1) disc to watch the movie. The 2nd disc is bonus material stuff I haven't gotten around to watching. Some people might actually like the idea of watching a movie without interruptions (e.g. flipping over to a 2nd disc).

Yeah, I've noticed some folks buying discs overseas. But is it because Blu-Ray-challenged HD-DVD folks are having to look overseas for movies already available on Blu-Ray in the USA ? :0)

I'm sure there will be examples of Region coding hacking me off but I suspect that's a few years away with HD media.

I don't really see that happening, despite the blu-boys' rants.

- I've yet to see a Blu-Ray movie which required 2 discs for playback. - oscar 10:00:44 06/22/07 (0)
  OTOH "Lord of the Rings" is not out on Blu-Ray (yet.....).
  
  Hmm...haven't see it on HD-DVD yet either. Of course, the use of really low bitrate encodes for longer movies can save space (just ignore the extra motion artifacts....)
