The old boys, who used to shoot on film, then moved "direct to tape," to be cost effective, know exactly how much value content has. There are hundreds of thousands of catalog titles out there, and they'd be happy to get 25 cents for a license.
99 cents? oh yea. That's gonna be the "retail" sales level at some point, real soon.
