Sad day. As someone who has largely lurked rather than posted, I have enjoyed being here and wish Jon and the team best wishes for the future.

This thread made me check what the Silly Symphonies set is selling for these days - mad price! What really annoyed me was that although Silly Symphonies was released to Region 2, the companion volume containing the rest of the series was not!
