I was at the Superstore today so I figured i'd check out the DVD section, while I was browsing a store manager comes over and tells one of the employees to take all the widescreen DVD's off the shelves if their is a seperate P&S version on the shelf, so I butt in and ask why? she tells me that most people don't like WS DVD's and that the store is getting too many returns from people that want P&S but picked up a WS copy by accident, so if a title is available in WS only they are going to put a big "Widescreen Version" sticker on the DVD, if a title is available in seperate P&S and WS versions they are putting a sticker on the P&S version that says "This is a Fullscreen Version, if you want the widescreen version please ask staff for a copy"
I told her what she was doing is wrong and the exact opposite of what she should be doing and explained in great detail why, she wouldn't listen and said I was in the minority so I told her that she just lost a customer and walked away.
But now that i've had time to think about it I think i'm gonna start buying bunches of P&S discs from them and then return them and complain that half the picture is missing and demand Widescreen.
