Following is an excerpt from an article that ran in Variety:

I can't see VHS sales of catalogue being at all sustainable at rental prices
Which is probably why it has only been tried once or twice in the last 20 years (I remember a rental-priced Gone With The Wind, but that's it).
I presume the DVD will too, but I wonder if WB will be ending rental-pricing on VHS only, and gearing up to enact in on DVD.
Try reading the post again. Lieberfarb is attacking rental pricing as a failure and suggesting its total elimination. Which of his statements makes you even imagine that he would want to eliminate it on VHS and inflict it on DVD?
Regards,
Joe
