but they cant charge so much...and by reducing prices, im sure they would get more sales, so it would even out...
and when a movie comes out in theatres, 1 month later, they should release the dvd...doesnt make sense to wait a year to release it

Amen.
Apple dragged to RIAA into bigtime online downloads and what does Apple make on the music? 2c/99c sale. Yet it's Apple's bandwidth and software distributing their music (taken into account for the net profit/track).
Because of pressure from certain European countries to ban iTunes because of its DRM, Apple posted an open public call to the RIAA to release DRM enforcing on it's tunes, to which they refused.
The MPAA and RIAA are in the same control freak bed.
Their DVD prices are exhorbitant - 20 Euros+ for a blockbuster movie - get real!!!
