Cutting each episode to fit the newer shorter lengths is totally inexcusable. Why cut something on DVD to make it the shorter? The shorter standard could only be to fit in more commercials, which shouldnt matter in the least for DVD releases. What, do they think nobody will notice we watch more commercials now than in the past if they cut DVD release too?!?!
Does anyone know if they did anything stupid like this on the HD-DVD releases of Star Trek Season 1?

More than likely they did it because the clipped things like Johnny speaking over music. That would allow them to get down to the shortened running time and not need to attempt to replace the music.
Now that they are putting it on DVD they don't want to go back and replace the music so they just leave the scene out and use the shortened episodes.
