THE EGYPTIAN and MYSTERIOUS ISLAND both came out at $40, IIRC. As I said, though, I don't really care if a company charges $40 or $30 for a Blu-Ray, as long they give you ample leeway in deciding when to buy. A year or so doesn't seem entirely unreasonable. Eight weeks is not enough time, and that's how long it took FRIGHT NIGHT to sell out.haineshisway said:Last I looked the cost was $29.98. Postage is postage on ANY release from anywhere. But let's not inflate the actual cost by ten bucks just because it helps you make a point.
How are customers supposed to know what will sell out and what won't? The fact that one title has sold out shows that it is possible that JOURNEY or THE BIG HEAT or anything else they release could also sell out. The possibility of a sell-out seems much more likely now that they're selling some titles for under $30. Again, I don't see why they simply don't offer these titles as BD-Rs on demand. People are paying nearly $30 for some Warner Archive DVD-Rs, so surely they would be willing to pay that much for a BD-R. I can't see any reason Sony would object to the use of BD-Rs, and TT would almost certainly be able to sell more copies, as they could almost certainly offer these titles for a lower price.A "scant" three thousand, eh? Funny, then, that only ONE of all of their titles has actually sold anywhere near 3000. Not so "scant" in my book.
