Slightly cheaper than the average where it hovers between £14 and £18.
Personally I think it's phenomenal value for a stunning box set in Blu Ray.
*From the Description*
Band of Brothers arrives handsomely packaged in a six-disc box set with two episodes on each of the first five discs. Sound (Dolby 5.1) and picture (1.78:1 widescreen) only enhance the series' epic credentials. Disc 6 contains all the extras, the meatiest of which is the marvellous 80-minute documentary "We Stand Alone Together" about the real men of Easy Company. There's also a first-rate, genuinely interesting 30-minute "making of" feature about actor boot camp, visual effects and blowing up fake trees among many other things. This is complemented by actor Ron Livingston's revealing Video Diaries of boot camp. Additionally there's a "Who's Who" section and footage of the HBO premiere at Utah Beach, plus a TV spot for car company Jeep. --Mark Walker

Is it worth watching...yes. Band of Brothers is based on real accounts of a group of American soldiers "Easy Company" as they go from training in the USA to D-Day and then fighting on the western front. It has an excellent cast and is well made. Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks were the director/producers.

I haven't seen this
Is it worth watching? At risk of some obvious answers, what's it about? Roughly speaking.

Is that a serious question?

WW2 experiences of US paratroopers.

probably the best series of war films ever, up there with Private Ryan and Iwo Jima (the jap side, not the US version)

See link for info and pictures.
The dvd's that come with it are Korean region 3. But i have swapped them out for Blu Ray uk copies. All the documents bar 1 booklet come in english print. Maps of Normandy with tide times, Sunrise times etc on the back.
I may have to buy it. I only have it on DVD. Worth it alone for 'Bastogne' and 'Carentan'

Good price, so heat added. I'm always looking for the Japanese import though, because it's the only edition to not have the destructive noise/dirt/scratch-removal processes applied. You can see a comparison here (US edition has the same video), it's really damning.

I have it on dvd, blu-ray, the limited edition bluray in the tin, and i have the rare korean edition in the bag with all the maps and documents. Dont think i can justify buying another set.
Heat added, very good price
