Re: Ichabod and Mr. Toad to be released on Blu-ray in August
Blu-Ray is of much higher definition than DVD - the pixels are smaller and packed closer together, giving improved detail. The difference becomes more obvious as you increase the screen size, so by the time you are up to 40 inches or so it is very obvious indeed.
White Christmas
High Time
The Bells Of St Mary's
(and shortly) The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr Toad (for which Bing narrates the Ichabod section)
have been issued on Blu Ray so far. I might have missed something.
Later addition - - I did - "Holiday Inn" for one!
There is a Blu Ray site here

Are you sure about "Holiday Inn" being on blu-ray?

Well, - nearly - available for pre -order. Found it when browsing a few days ago.
A deeper search shows not until December this year. Something to put on Christmas wish list.
(Later)
And December 30th is about as silly a date to release a Christmas film as you could possibly contemplate.
I did find reference on another site to a release date for US of September/October (far more sensible) but it was speculation, clearly not based on any official announcement.
I cannot now find the site again! It's almost impossible to narrow the search terms down sufficiently - there is too much extraneous stuff thrown up by searches.
