I’m really getting tired of this exclusive disc news. Best Buy gets an exclusive bonus disc in the Boston Legal box set, the My Name Is Earl set has different bonuses depending on whether you buy it as Circuit City or Target, and now Wal-Mart gets a fat bonus disc packaged with X3. Not that I’m all stoked to buy X3, but it’s really frustrating to know that the next time I grab a DVD, I stand a good chance of getting the shaft somehow. I love having hardcopies all nicely packaged up, but all this is making me more and more ready for the inevitable future when we’ll be able to download everything a la carte.
