"Sony Pictures Home Entertainment have announced the Region 1 DVD release of Spider-Man 2.1: Extended Cut for 17th April 2007 priced at $19.94 SRP. This new release arriving in advance of the May theatrical debut of Spider-Man 3 integrates eight minutes of never-before-seen footage into the main feature and comes loaded with all-new bonus materials including an introduction by producers Grant Curtis and Avi Arad; commentary by producer Laura Ziskin and screenwriter Alvin Sargent; the featurette Inside 2.1, highlighting new visual effects, editing and sound design; and a sneak peek of Spider-Man 3."

Shameless cash-in-o-rama.
