Season 3 Coming to DVD and Blu-Ray!
In spite of all the skepticism revolving around season three's probability of being released on Blu-Ray (even though it was produced in HD) it appears that it will in fact get an HD release along with the standard fare DVD set. IGN has a story along with two product-shot mockups showing off the old Atari game box style the sets will carry.
Arriving at retail as a two-disc box set on both platforms for the suggested retail prices of $29.98 and $44.98, respectively, The Venture Bros. Season 3 features all 13 uncensored episodes from the show's highly popular third season and bonus material including deleted scenes and commentary. Additionally, the Blu-ray disc box set will be packaged with an exclusive CD which includes 20 tracks that comprise the full musical score from the television series' third season.
So there you go! The site says the release date is March 24, 2009, so there's a while to wait, but Blu-Ray fans and Playstation 3 owners rejoice.Update: In celebration of this momentous event there's a new poll (or vote in the sidebar).

i'm not about to change my entertainment viewing system around, but bonus soundtrack, bonus soundtrack, bonus soundtrack!!! so unless a change of release plans will make the soundtrack included with the dvd version too, it will have to be the dvd set for my repeated watching pleasure, and the blu-ray which will possibly be worth some collectors item points. Hurry up March 24!

Oh mah god!
I've been waiting for dvd news. I never expected it to come from IGN.
So is that the real art? And why hasn't Publick mentioned it yet? Oh well, we'll see; hopefully the release date doesn't turn out to be further back.
I have a PS3, so I want the Bluray. But I also want to watch it in places other than my basement, so I want the DVD.
I think the CD makes the purchase of both formats a necessity. I knew I was gonna want both formats, but I also knew that the purchase of both at the same time would be hard to justify.
I guess $75 isn't tooo bad. I love you, the Venture Brothers.

What do you mean? This is the first I've heard of a soundtrack, and I think "Additionally, the Blu-ray disc box set will be packaged with an exclusive CD which includes 20 tracks that comprise the full musical score from the television series' third season" pretty much sums it up.

I'd imagine we're still getting the soundtrack...that was discussed as a J.G. Thirlwell release, whereas this is obviously Adult Swim/Astrobase Go.
My guess is that this will just cover the season three tunes, and the official J.G. soundtrack will cover 1-2. Fingers crossed, folks...

Thirlwell's site said that the Venture Bros. soundtrack was supposed to come out in March on Williams Street Records (i.e., Adult Swim's record company). It sounds like it's could be the same thing, then. But on the other hand, Thirlwell's site says nothing about it being packaged with Season 3, as an exclusive or otherwise.
I really hope that term "exclusive" is wrong or misleading. I love Venture Bros. and I love JGT's music even more. But I don't have a Blu-ray player and don't plan to get one, so the practical case for me is that I'd be paying $45 for a CD.
If I were going to spend that much money, and that's a gigantic *IF*, it'd be under extreme protest and would use up all the goodwill that Adult Swim has accrued from me.

Maybe this is a weird thread to bring it up, but on the Season 2 (?) commentary they mentioned that a couple guys made and sent them fan commentaries for all the episodes; I think Jackson talks about how they're way better than the stuff they do.
Does anybody know if these commentaries exist out there on the internet?
