It's not on DVD, and when it does come out, it won't be for the same price.

In contrast, the CD *is* out, and has been available for the same price as
it is on iTunes. Yet I don't see people complaining about that album's
price.

It is interesting that people are willing to pay more for just the
music then music+video. iTunes is also selling individual music videos
from the show, and it would be interesting to see if those sell better
then the entire movie.
