I see advertisements and it seems each store has a different version of the dvd.  Fullscreen, Wide Screen, Blu-Ray.

Some are 1 Disc/ DVD and some are 3 DVD’s.

Now –  we sure don’t want to miss out on any goodies so what exactly is the difference?

What are we missing on the 3 dvd set and where do we find it?

Well – Twifanatics.com to the rescue.  We checked the scene and break it down for you:

Amazon Ondemand

Amazon also offers the streaming version of twilight for $3.99 (24 hour rental) or $14.99 to buy.

No features or extras that I can see listed.

So –  That’s our roundup.

What do we suggest?   Believe it or not some people will run out and buy several versions.

If you are into BluRay –  then we’d suggest heading to target to pick up a copy.  Pretty affordable price.

If you are looking for standard widescreen then Target seems to have the best deal with the 3-disc Set.

If extras/collectors sets is your thing – Borders looks like they’ve hit the sweet spot.

Please let us hear your comments – did we miss a great deal?
