From The Digital Bits Rumor Mill: “Warner is also looking at the possibility of releasing TV product on DVD in season-at-a-time sets, although no plans have been firmly set. We do, however, know that if you love Babylon 5, and would love to see more of it on DVD, then you need to get out there and buy the first Babylon 5 disc when it’s released on December 4th. The studios says that it will make future plans for the series on DVD based on the success of that release.” So, hop on over to our Babylon 5 Store and order the first DVD, In The Beginning/The Gathering today and voice your support for the whole series!!!
