As a massive Scott Pilgrim fan, getting the Blu Ray was just going to happen. However, the BD Live inclusion was a complete and utter bonus. If you're unaware, BD Live (currently only available as certain movies) is basically extras that you would find as editions to your movie, however, the vast features are far greater than regular goodies;
Automatic firmware updates
Checking each time the device is switched on to see if it has been tampered with and reporting issues
Internet chats
Scheduled chats with the director
Internet games
Downloadable featurettes
Downloadable quizzes and downloadable movie trailers.
The bad news?
You need an internet (preferably Wi-Fi) connected Blu Ray Player (not a Bonus View Player) or PS3.
Got an internet connected Blu Ray Player or PS3? Got an iPhone/iPod Touch with Wi-Fi? Then download the free BD Live app, and use your device as a remote, or, if you really want to show off, stream/download movies straight to your device, unlock hidden extras contained in the movie, and watch trailers.
BD Live really is the future of Blu Ray, and you'd be wise getting in on the action.
Oh, and if the post title was a tad missleading, you can get more on Scott Pilgrim in the Blu Ray review which will be up asap.
