Sucks for Europeans - I've been getting amazing prices on Amazon US for years...bought my first Blu-ray in November 2006 (Into The Blue - yes, for the boobies) and haven't looked back. Have over 400 titles now.
My collection - http://www.blu-ray.com/community/collection.php?u=1916
I have an all region player so I can order PAL DVDs and 1080i50 Blu-ray discs even if they're REGION B from the UK, had to figure that one out when North America got shafted last year on the 2011 Formula One review disc, we got crappy DVD only here, the UK/EU got a gorgeous Blu-ray and then same thing happened again this year.
I usually only upgrade titles I absolutely love or ones where the DVD had a really poor transfer and the reviews of the remaster are excellent, like The Godfather Trilogy, Band of Brothers, Saving Private Ryan, etc. It was the lossless audio aspect that first drew me to Blu-ray, I couldn't wait to hear "The Fifth Element" with a PCM track instead of 1/2 bit-rate dts.
