On a related note, but echoing what you opined, is the dicussion my wife and I had tonight. We had just dropped our daughter at a friends party and thought we might go and see a movie. The Three Musketeers to be exact.
It was going to cost us over AU$55 to buy the tickets and purchase nibbles. Turned out the session times were atrocious (another growing trend) and we decided it could wait. Eventually I will probably buy the blu-ray...maybe...
The entertainment and publishing industry hide in their caves, waving stone tipped implements, not daring to look out the cave to see what the outside world is doing. I now truly believe they are never, ever going to change. Merely being side shunted by newer, progressive companies fully prepared to embrace modern distribution practices and also fully prepared to adapt to future ones, whilst the Neanderthals slip quietly into extinction or are overrun.
