And that's fine, but the bundle seems to be used to justify higher prices. "Oh, well it would be $10, but you get both a Blu-ray and a DVD, so we have to charge you $20"

Bleah. I haven't noticed that in the US anime market, but prices are all over the map as companies seek better/sustainable business models. Anime suffered from the general decline in DVD sales, and the decrease in retail outlets, like The Musicland Group (Musicland, Sam Goody, Suncoast Motion Picture Company, On Cue, and Media Play superstores) going poof after Best Buy bought them.
