Although as Mat from Passion River has just pointed out, Netflix and Amazon may
not necessarily hold various rights to titles.
We do need to be more vocal—letters, petitions, etc. And NMM 2017 sounds like a
great venue for hashing out details.

Physical media morphs and evolves (vinyl to CD and back to vinyl again; VHS to
DVD to Blu-ray), but reports of its death have been greatly (and consistently)

Hi Jodie,
As an avid gamer I think I can answer your question regarding XBLA (Xbox Live
Arcade) games. Unlike PC games, XBLA and other console download games do not
have key codes (that I’ve ever seen anyway)—they simply download and install to
the hard drive.

I have a request in for a review copy. Since it's won an award, garnered
some national press (Canadian), and aired on PBS, it's probably a safe bet
for purchase.

no difference with DVD/Blu-ray:
libraries who are not buying from Amazon, Baker Taylor, Midwest, etc. *when
the title is available in retail and discount priced* are not being very wise
stewards of taxpayer monies, plain and simple.
