Fox To Remove Special Features From Rental DVDs
Posted by Todd on Mar 12, 2009 in Movie News • No commentsSlashFilm is reporting that the movie studio FOX (yes the same one Alex Proyas says to stay away from) has just had a stroke of genius. Here’s how it went:
1- Hey, DVD sales are down. I wonder if it’s because the global economy is in the toilet…
2- No, no, it’s because people are renting instead of buying. What can we do to get people to buy instead of rent?
3- I know! We could strip all extra features off rental DVDs so people are forced to buy DVDs for the extras!! This will in no way push people to torrents and other forms of pirating movies whatsoever.
Now, I will admit I don’t know the thought process of a mentally challenged chimp, but I’m guessing it looks something like this.
