The whole thing just makes the movie studios pathetic and petty.
Basically trying to funnel people into brick and mortar retail stores to purchase discs which is a thing of the past. And will go the way of bookstores and CD stores. Welcome to the future. I can't wait until discs of any kind are completely obsolete.

It's not really that simple, and it sort of is the "fault" of the streaming services. There are now at least half a dozen companies that want the Internet streaming rights to those movies and they are all in the middle of bidding wars, plus of course they all want exclusive rights.
Wal-Mart, Hulu, Netflix, Time Warner, Comcast... they all want the exclusive rights and it's going to be a battle. The studios are going to hold out and wait for the highest bid. Why wouldn't they?
