Why all these "Season Party X X"?

Funimation is really on my nerves. Lately they have already started the season (if I dare call it that) boxes that have names like "Part 1" and "Part 2". This upsets me because not only is it a full season shot to pieces, but these DVD / Blu-ray "box parties" typically sell for 40-60 dollars a pop. Thusly the costs of these discs to go a scandalous 80-120 dollars for a season total. Does anyone else find this annoying? Why or why not? For me, it's stuff like this that annoys me because it is market practice of this kind that can drive one to piracy. I tolerate the piracy of recording, and when there are completely full seasons released on DVD or Blu-ray, I tend to buy them knowing I have the complete package to address usually half of this outrageous price like 40-60 dollars:. @ Persephinae I sent an e-mail with that concern. I'm willing to wait for a game zone complete because I want to pay for the hands of those that attract these shows we watch and admire.

@ Animegeek he trying to say, however, is he wants to try to do the right thing and support the industry and retailers, but he feels it is enjoyed by these retailers. While most of us watch anime or read manga online, it is still piracy and theft. That's why you should support the creators and buy products so to speak. @ Zakman, maybe did you consider sending an e-mail the owners, the distributor (: Funimation) and let them know your concerns as a fan? Or maybe start a petition to show that there are other fans who feel the same way? T Funimation release a full set later? Would it be worth waiting for the full game completely: Sorry, I know that trying to be honest can be hard on the wallet S
