Directed by Steven Lisberger, the film stars Jeff Bridges, Bruce Boxleitner and Barnard Hughes. The 2 disc DVD set contains the remastered film with commentary by Lisberger, producer Donald Kushner and visual effects supervisors Harrison Ellenshaw and Richard Taylor, a new 75-minute "making-of" documentary "The Making of Tron", deleted scenes, original soundtrack music deleted from the film and more all for $29.99.

This is just like the advertisement of the Segway on Slashdot.
What gets me is that the MPAA has once again successfully distracted the editors from spewing their copyright related bile against Valenti et al with another "shiny object."
I like my news fresh and early, if you are ever stuck in a time machine and end up in the past, check /. for "today's" news.

Yes, but people in the real world base purchasing decisions on desire vs. cost, rather than on politics (as you do). One day when we all recite the thoughts of Chairman RMS before our compulsory EMACS work we will be able to resist the fiendish MPAA.
That's GNU Emacs.
Linux, the OS, is a complete fraud.
Some communist name Linus T. copied
the source files from an OS named
Minix from the University of Sweden.
He modified 1 file so that
`uname -a` would return "linux...".
That was his big accomplishment!
He had his cracker friend post a bunch
of crap on usenet how Linus made Linux,
and the rest followed from there.
Down on your knees linux lovers, and suck
it, because linux is a fraud, and your are
the kind of lame-stupid-fucks who swallowed
the bullshit story hook-line-sinker.

Do we or do we not have a boycot of MPAA DVDs? ??
I hope you're joking.
They want to release *their* products at their discretion, and you want to take that away from them?
"I hate strangers who don't let me use their bathrooms when I knock on the door. One more reason to piss on their lawns."
Point the first: Don't buy the special edition DVD then.
Point the second: If *no one* buys the first DVD, then a special edition DVD is *unwarranted*
Point the third: I never even *knew* there was a first edition DVD. I look forward to buying the special edition.
Point the fourth: Your money is your discretion, their product is their discretion. You have full control over your spending habits, they have full control over their release cycle. Any transaction here is a *voluntary* one.
