If the studios are so concerned about the loss of profits, consider the buying habits of the enthusiast vs. J6P. True, the enthusiast is far outnumbered by headcount, but how many of us own hundreds, or even thousands, of DVDs?
I grew up with VHS, and I only have 30 or so, collecting dust, after two decades. I got my first DVD player less than a year and a half ago, and I already have 4x more DVDs than video tapes, with no end in sight (providing OAR is available).
I've got one of the smaller collections around here. If you tallied the number of DVDs owned by enthusiasts vs. the number of DVDs owned by J6Ps, studios may be barking up the wrong tree.
