Mike - I understand the movie theaters position, and to some point I sympathize with it. But right now, their entire stance is based on not giving me, the customer choice becuase they're worried about their bottom line. It is their right to be concerned about that, but it is also my right as a customer to ask for choice. There's no reason movies can't be released on DVD and in the theater on the same day.
The fact is, I can buy or download a bootleg and watch it at home the same day, so their position doesn't even really make sense, and it's going to get worse as time goes on. In my opinion, they are simply refusing to face the facts about todays marketplace and it is going to cost them whether they like it or not.
