They go for reasonable prices on ebay, makes sense just to buy rather than clog the Netflix pipeline for days.

BTW, apparently there are different releases - some are 11 DVD's, some 7 - any idea about the difference?

  Should I now just hang myself? :)
  
  A Blue Ray player is not on my list of things to buy for next ten years, so this is a non-issue. Still, curious how the format change was done.

  I just finished cleaning and adjusting my 19" Quasar TV from the eighties. The picture is to die for, so it is ready for Blue Ray!
  
  Do I set it on channel 3 or 4 for best picture? Which Blue Ray with RF output is the best buy?

      Channel 3 works better!
I suggest you study Amazon for possible explanation. I finished up - tinear 11:21:28 01/28/11 (2)
DVD #7; it seems to have covered the end of the war, plus some final thoughts. I have no idea what the remaining ones will show, but I'm now awaiting them.
Of course, part of the greatness of this is the spectacular narration of Sir Laurence: it is one of his best "roles." Never overly emotive; letting the words convey the meanings. Oh, to have seen him live in a Shakespearean drama! The greatest of the three English giants (Gielgud and Richardson, of course, being the other two). Side note: as I heard from a Richardson interview, the three of them decided to buy exactly the same model Brit bikes, Norton Commandos, and ride together. They picked a date--- it may have been when all had reached 65 years of age--- where all three would have felt they'd lived long enough and had nothing to fear. Imagine zipping around an English country road and being passed by that threesome! "Dear.... didn't those three gentlemen look oddly familiar?"
- I just checked: it appears the first 7 DVDs are all the original episodes, - tinear 11:26:18 01/28/11 (1)
  totaling 26 hours. The other four DVDs are extra materials that many have reviewed as important.
  - Good, as shelf space is at premium! nt - Victor Khomenko 11:32:56 01/28/11 (0)
