Well that worked well. what the article said is that Warner brothers has signed an agreement with Netflix that makes Netflix delay the release of new movies and such for one month for more access to allow viewing of Warner movies on line. It seems that they already have an agreement with Blockbuster that gives them money for movies rented via Blockbuster. So by doing this they make sure to increase their profits as most of the renting/buying of a new movie is done within the first month. They have already tangled with Redbox over the same issue and have even delayed shipping movies or not sell movies to Redbox (they secure them through other wholesalers) for teh same reason. Hollywood Studios are really flexing their muscle. Give us good movies instead of schlock and you might make more money!

Nothing to fret about in that regard. When the ground troops for the Hollywood moguls come to Washington to cry about their terrible losses due to pirating, they always come in their private corporate jets and take limos to the Hill. The reason that they crank out schlock is because, for the most part, moviegoers will readily consume that schlock. As I have been saying in another thread, real quality, up and down the line, is not a priority with most consumers. They wanna go see what everybody else is going to see just like they wanna buy what everybody else is buying. That is called being cool, fitting in and being up to speed on what is in vogue. Additionally, it has been amply demonstrated that the primary reason a given movie comes in first at the box office, a factor purely predicated upon ticket sale dollar amounts, is if it is the most heavily advertised movie on television.

Oh, I know you are not worried about their financial status any more than I am. I was just making a comment. Before you know it we will need to get a license for our Blue Ray players and pay each time I view a movie we have bought. Stop giving them ideas!
