More than twice as expensive as the upcoming DVD set -- I wonder whether this can possibly be worth the extra cost, given the state of the film elements.
Artificial Eye Blu-rays tend to get very cheap about six months after the release...

I don't think it's a bad price. It's just a little more expensive than the Three Colours Trilogy but has a bit more content.

This might be a moot point now that the film has been announced on Blu-ray, but here is a review (the text was mysteriously excised, but the ratings are still up).

Picture quality: 3.5/5
Audio quality: 3/5
Bonus materials/menu: 0.5/5
Final rating: 3/5

Yes, I've just bought a whole load from Amazon, and Melancholia (understandably) was the only one more expensive than £6.49.
