DVD swapping site presses retailers for play

A point showing DVDs are too expensive: "But if given a chance to think about it, most customers put that $17 disc back in the rack. "They might only watch it once, so they'd rather rent it," he said."

This just shows that DVDs are too expensive. Now if that DVD was $10 that could rent it $5.99 or buy it for $10.99. Which would you choose? Rent it for a few nights or buy it watch when you want.

Guess this exactly the reason why many stores sell thier DVDs for $10.99 just before the check out. I just bought 3 DVDs and they were relatively new movies being released in theatres between 2002-2003.; Posted by: voska Posted on: 07/20/05 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
