Hollywood selling movies

As long as we recognize Lucas is washed up and most TV sucks, we'll all get along fine.

I'm not seeing the attraction here. I get to spend just as much as a DVD, only I can't burn my movie to DVD?

I can see how this will probably be the future way of getting films, but right now, I've got to think this is bleeding edge, and thus, not very profitable.

I don't like DVDs, so I see the appeal.

On the other hand, anything with copy restrictions loses the appeal.
It's not me, it's someone else.

So, they're skipping the cost of a physical distribution system, but not lowering the price nor letting me burn it to a permenant media?

Fuck that. They've set it up to fail. And then they'll claim "well, we tried, but people don't want digital distribution".
