Don't give in to the R2 rip-off merchants, you'll only encourage them to
keep doing it (see also Prison Break, R2 in two parts with each part
costing more than the whole season on R1).

If you're that desperate to see them go the Bittorrent route, no reason
not to, especially if you're going to buy them anyway. You'll be able to
watch them now, instead of even waiting until July :-)

Also, remember that even though the first half will be out before R1,
when is the second half going to be out? You might get R2 and then be
wishing you hadn't because the second half isn't out until January or
something.
