I love special features. Save on the rare occasions when I want to see something so much and have only the option of buying the DVD (my local rental place is a chain that keeps very very little that is over six months old), or when buying the DVD is actually cheaper than renting, I only buy DVDs of films I love and know i will watch over and over. If I really like a film, I want as much information as possible. Otherwise, if i hire, the standard two night rental charge works nicely - watch the film one night, the commentary the next. Helps sweeten the expense of hiring too (as much as going to the cinema here - per head savings make no odds as I live alone). One of my favourite extras was on the Hedwig and the Angry Inch DVD - before the show the film was based on, the writers workshopped the character at an open night mike, so Hedwig's first ever "performance" was captured on film for their own use, and consequently became a DVD extra.
