Hmmm. . . you raise a point worth considering re atmosphere.

There was a time when I bought everything that came out on DVD. Now, I've come to realize that that could just be a waste of money, if one already has the film on video. All things being equal, now if a film I already have comes out on DVD, I'll stick to my video.

An exception would be interesting extras or a VASTLY improved quality over the standard video release. Case in point, I probably won't end up getting the HoD DVD as there doesn't seem to be enough improvement (and no worthwhile extras) to merit the cost. However, I WILL get the CoF DVD as the standard Warner VHS here in the States was notoriously poor in quality.
