The blu-ray "promo" discs on BD-R have been floating around for awhile now and I had a few questions about it. PM me if you have it. I'd really love to get my hands on a copy...
Also, is it true thats its only 1080i vs true 1080P?
It is NOT a promo... but a simple bootleg. No studio ever produced this as a 'promo'. That's just lingo they are using to describe it on ebay hoping not to get them removed.
It is based on a 1080i capture that is easily found on the internet. Someone captured it when it was aired on cable in HD. Most capturing devices will capture at 720p or 1080i. I've watched it. While it's obviously better than the fullscreen DVD that was produced, it's not great by any means (lots of interlacing present in the picture). At least it's widescreen and better quality than the dvd.
Don't waste your money on buying it though. Search for it online.

I was wondering where the 720 version on YT came from. Picture quality is about as you describe it, which isn't far from what you get streaming in HD from Netflix.
