Re: 212 Star Trek DVDs ......
Assuming that each disc contains 3hours you'd need to have 26.5 straight days to watch it. Of course you could double that is you wanted to sleep.
In fact its good for 2 hours of trek per ebening for almost a year

Re: 212 Star Trek DVDs ......
I could imagine some sort of psychotic episode after watching that lot, resulting in the poor trekkie running wildly around his workplace screaming "tribbles!!! tribbles!!" and trying to use the coffee machine as a teleport device.

I'd buy these if I had the money. Too bad that'll be about a year

Re: 212 Star Trek DVDs ......
If it comes out in the UK you could sign up to screenselect and get the series in order. Be interesting to see how long it takes to get through.

Even so how much would you really watch them, I could guarantee that if you only unwrapped the cello when you watched them there would be disks with cello on 2-3 years later.

I really don't know where Paramount get off charging this much for Star Trek sets. Realistically this should be more around the $1500 range.
$40 per season of programming x 28 seasons = $1120
$30 per movie x 10 films = $ 300
Total $1420
Add on some premium for packaging, etc. $1499
Tacking on that extra $1000 for this set is a bit much and just plain greedy.
