Here are some reasons why:
- Season 8 (what some might call Season 7, Part 2) is slated for 2018 but still long away from being released. During that time what better to do than re-watch all seven seasons in sequence?
- The package artwork is just really cool looking with a Targaryen dragon and Baratheon lion facing each other. Diehard GOT fans might want it just as a collectible item.
- The 7-disc Blu-ray edition of Game of Thrones: Seasons 1-7 includes Digital HD copies of all episodes, so you can download or stream the shows wherever there’s internet.
- Finally, and the most practical reason, the price of the Seasons 1-7 edition is about half the price of each season if purchased individually on Blu-ray.
We added up all 7 seasons of Game of Thrones based on current prices at Amazon and the total came to about $275. We also calculated the total of all seasons if purchased in Digital HD from Vudu (where the digital copies can be redeemed) and it came to about $260.
Right now Amazon has Game of Thrones: Seasons 1-7 selling for $139.99 (List: $229.99) for a discount of $90.00. There’s also a DVD version (that doesn’t come with digital copies) selling for $129.99 (List: $189.99) for a savings of $60.00 (32%).
Of course, not all the bonus materials that come with each single-season edition are included, but if you’re only interested in the episodes the Seasons 1-7 bundle is a great buy.
