It depends on who holds the international license.
In the case of GuP, it was Showgate, so Bandai had very little say at that point.

Hmmm.... $90 for 7 episodes on Vol 1 Blu-Ray(and it includes some nice extras) or $40 for 7 episodes on DVD.
I know some will complain but I like this pricing scheme for Aniplex. If they can do a domestic release for Fate/Zero like this, I will love them.
EDIT: Looks like SAO's 4 volumes are seven, seven, five and six episodes on each. (Sorry only saw first and last volume so thought 7 for the first and 6 for the rest) And they are bilingual. I will think about buying SAO so Aniplex can do other affordable Blu-Ray releases.
EDIT2: dtm42 pointed out that I was mistaken in the exact episode counts per volume.

You can't count. They are seven, seven, five and six respectively.
But at least you didn't complain about the price . . .

You're correct. I only looked at the first and last volume so I made an incorrect assumption.
And price complaints usually comes from those believe they are entitled to $50 box sets. I know that Aniplex of America isn't interested in pricing races to the bottom and they do try for reasonably affordable options on "mainstream" shows.
