I agree.

I still see the major problem as being pricing. Prices are too high....especially for software. I check out the stands at my local shop regularly. There are several titles that I would buy if they were at a lower price point; however, every time I see a 32+ dollar price tag I just put it back on the shelf. I like films, but I have come to realize that there are very few films that I'm willing to spend more than 26 bucks on. There are exceptions but so far most of the releases on the shelf today are "like to have" not "must have".

Master and Commander is a perfect example. I would badly like to upgrade my DVD copy, but 32 bucks (not including 11% in sales tax) for a bare bones copy.......well, it just becomes a "forget it" moment.
