I read about the BB problems also and as another poster said they are not as bad as CC, but in some sort of perspective in all this, I stopped a long time ago from going to CC for DVD’s. They have the worst way of displaying their titles, and usually did not carry any older catalog titles. BB used to carry just about every title but backed off about three years ago and only carried newer titles, TV titles and the 100th reissue of Grease. I was forced to go to Amazon and Deep Discount for the titles I wanted. On a better note, while at BB purchasing Tropic Thunder, I did see several older catalog titles that I did not think BB would carry so I guess they are stocking them for the holidays.
Yes, I think the economy is going to lessen the sales, I know that I have cut my buy list and presently not purchasing any Television Titles or reissues that I perceive as an upgrade. I already had Cape Fear and Mockingbird, so I did not purchase the Universal Gregory Peck collection and as bad as I want the Planet of Apes Blu-ray, it can wait until better times.
What I hope happens is that Paramount, Universal, and MGM will re-think the notion of re-issuing titles that are already out there and release something that is not. With word today of Universal going to redo the three Back To The Future titles, I guess my hopes are dashed.
