History of Star Trek on Blu-ray
Star Trek releases on Blu-ray commenced in April 2009 with season one of The Original Series. The full series of Star Trek: The Next Generation and Star Trek: Enterprise were later released.
Star Trek: Deep Space Nine
CBS have commented that a Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Blu-ray release is a possibility. In a post on Twitter, Michael Okuda commented, "We've heard that CBS execs would love to give DS9 the HD treatment, if sales for TNG HD continue to support it." [1] Craig Weiss of CBS Digital commented that there has been talk about remastering Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. [2] As of December 2014, however, there has been no official decision made public.
Regarding DS9 on Blu-ray, Roger Lay, Jr. commented, "We're all ready to go, man. I've been finding some really cool stuff related to the making of Deep Space Nine that I can’t wait to put on a Blu-ray set. Enterprise is out on Blu-ray as well – we released that simultaneously with TNG. So DS9 seems like the next logical choice". Lay, Jr. also commented, "Deep Space Nine, we all want to do it. I’ll tell you that. I think it’ll be more difficult in the sense that by season 4 of DS9 you had digital elements, a lot of digital elements.
