Quote:Lol, anyone remember releazing you had dropped the dvd off at the wrong store. I actually got a collections call from blockbuster about that years ago, they wanted like 30 dollars for some dvd. Dont remember if I paid or if they went broke first.

The cost to the retailers for their copy was more like $45.

The distributors charged more to rental businesses than they did consumers for a single copy.

So, Blockbuster (and any other rental business, including mom and pop rental shops) had to pay 25% or more for the same DVD/VHS/Beta/VideoDisc the consumer would pay for, solely because they were a rental business.

This is/was the corruption in the media "distribution" business... the motion picture business as well as music, and others.

The "label" tried/tries to take as much as they could/can from the actual artists.
