Ok.....Didn't see that coming along with the blu-ray release, but :
The March 19th home entertainment release will be followed by an Extended Edition in time for the holidays.
In addition, Peter Jackson will host a live first look at “The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug,” the second film in The Hobbit Trilogy, on Sunday, March 24th at 3:00PM Eastern/Noon Pacific. Content will be streamed live and an edited version will be archived on the Trilogy¢s official website. Access to the live event will be limited to holders of an UltraViolet code available by purchasing “The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey” Blu-ray Combo Pack, Blu-ray 3D Combo Pack or 2-Disc Special Edition DVD. Select digital retailers will issue access codes upon purchase of the film. Visit www.thehobbit.com/sneak for more information.
It's on the main page! http://www.theonering.net/...-download-in-hd-312/

Not all those who wander are lost,
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

I'm waiting for the SEE.
It's a bait tactic to get fans shell out bucks for a version they'll never touch again once the SEE comes out. At least i won't.

However, if that's the case,there will be an edited version on the hobbit.com... and who knows, maybe some good lad will try to upload the event on youtube moments after it is shown...

I'll buy the blue- ray combo, then I'll buy the EE, when it comes out. I would not be able to wait until November anyway.

I've been saying the preview wouldn't come out until after AUJ was on blu-ray (though I didn't think it would be this soon!).
Stinks terribly that one must buy the blu-ray to see it's full length, though. Like others, I'm waiting for EE. Looking forward to the short preview, though!
There's a sad sort of clanging from the clock in the hall and the bells in the steeple, too.
And up in the nursery an absurd little bird is popping out to say coo-coo (coo-coo, coo-coo).

In Germany for instance it seems we have to wait till April for the bluray/dvd release.

money is tight all over the world and has been for the last two or three years if not longer.
During LOTR, the economy had expendable money. I think I might have five copies of each movie.
This leads back to the box office numbers....tickets are expensive......money is tight...which equals less viewers unless they're diehards like us...
People today still go to movies, just not as often..

total bombs too. People spend there hard earned money where they want to...usually brand or name recognition wins out.
Lets face it, Super Hero's are big regardless of how bad the movie actually is. Middle-earth is pretty big too. The only way these franchises could fail is if they had Nicolas Cage in the movie. 
A billion is within reach with a loyal and dedicated fan base.

FOTR for various reasons I was only able to see AUJ one time in the theaters. However..... the big consolation prize is that I now have a Sony 55XBR8, Polk Audio Lsi15, Lsi f/x, Lsi C and a Monster THX subwoofer all powered by a Pioneer SC-37 in a cathedral ceiling Home Theater . I plan on shaking the timbers and picking up on the special details only gleaned from multiple viewings!!!

I certainly don't have the money to spend on a film I didn't like with special features I've already seen. I'll wait for the EE to spend my money.

However, as much as I love Gandalf, I am a bit disappointed that my future cover doesn't have Thorin on it. Maybe there can be a special edition EE release version that has his hair on it. Almost as good as those Argonath bookends.

Do the extended editions come out after the entire trilogy has been in theaters or is it one by one?

The EEs each came out about a month before the opening of the next film. Which was nice, one could buy the EE and watch it and then go see the next film of the series in the theater.

If adjusted for inflation, The Fellowship of the Ring and The Two Towers would both have grossed over a billion worldwide.

so you HAVE to buy the bluray-dvd combo to have access to the DOS sneak peek? Why a code to see an event? They're getting worst and worst in limiting fans to enjoy features from these films and all for money sakes.
But let's say you buy the darn combo. Is the access code gonna be in the packet? Do you have to ask for it where you buy it? It says "more information" on the "sneak" site but it's just a repetition of getting your code when you buy it.
