Those two distributors yes, but a brick and mortar retail outlet like Blockbuster pays more money per copy than buying them off the shelf, and then get their money back back renting over and over.
It's why 15 years ago (at the old age of 17) when I smashed a movie in a car door on accident the store said we owed them $140, which is what they paid for it. Rather than paying that, my dad bought the title at the store for $15 bucks opened it up and gave it to them.....they didn't accept it....then he said fine we'll see you in court, and they said...just forget about it, and didn't even take the tape LOL.
