"Waaaaa, Two Towers is being released on 4-discs in November, why are they ripping us off? Waaaaaaah"
They're not.
You know there is a special release version coming and nobody is forcing you to buy the 2-disc edition. Nobody puts a gun to your head and makes you pay twice.

"Why not release them both at the same time? Waaaaaah"
Because from watching the Fellowship extended extras, it takes weeks/months to prepare the extended with brand new special effects, new music, reshooting just for those scenes etc.
And what about if you're just a casual fan and dont want to spend £25 and get a load of bits you dont care about? Why should you have to wait another 2 months?

Take a look at a film like The Terminator.
Same film being released yet again with maybe an extra deleted scene of poor quality.
That's ripping people off, releasing a DVD and then 4 months later releasing another version.
Not saying "Here's a 2 disc but if you really want the goodies, we'll be bringing another version out in a few weeks"

Honestly, some people....

Sod the 2 disc/4 disc thing, why can't we have a choice of wide screen and full screen versions like the Region 1 release ?
