Exactly, and from what Mr. Ward at Shout was saying, the retailers are the driving force behind this. I don't know if it's limited to older shows, or if the newer shows are subject to it as well. I don't know if splitting it up will preclude a full season release or not.

Of course, with WB now selling through their own online store, it's possible that they could bundle the books themselves into a full season set through their own store and save money on such a release while still pleasing the retailers.

On the other hand, someone mentioned wanting the series on blu-ray. I wonder if a full season set might be a blu-ray exclusive, while the books would be format for DVD releases?
