Re: Amazon

"I personally do not want to ever buy another physical DVD / BluRay again."

Those words have truth to them. How many times can you watch the same movie? And if you do buy it, they release the Uncut version, the Director's Cut, the Extended, Uncut, Director's Cut. The Extended, Director's Cut in BluRay. The Collector's Edition in BluRay....

No. I realized that there is no return value purchasing the movie when you now can turn on a Netflix-enabled device (PS3, Xbox, BluRay, Roku,...) and see that entire library you have, mirrored on Netflix.
Those VHS tapes are where? Those DVDs are soon to be where? And BluRay...

but alot of what we aren't seeing are the studios wanting more money. Take a look at the Sony store of titles that you might not see on the Xbox Live store. Or that I've been waiting (VERY LONG WAIT) for Inglorious Basterds and had it in the queue since October! (yes, Dec release but still I had it there early).

If netflix doens't get some pull in titles (I can live with 14 days after DVD release but more than 30 days and I lose interest or as friends do, watch it elsewhere, likely on someone else's server or burned disc).

I wonder why Hollywood hasn't sucked up places like Netflix, Redbox and Gamefly. Then they would have new distribution model and control.
Oh that's right, they are sleezy, greedy idiots ...
