I would have invested in many more DVDs over the years if I thought they would be a viable format to start collecting on. But with their petty region locks and copy protection it seemed like a waste. It's the same reason I don't buy DRM-protected music from the iTunes store and instead buy CDs which I later rip to MP3. If companies spent the effort making purchases convenient rather than restricting the medium of distribution, they'd probably make more money AND keep customers happy. Who wants to buy media you can't truly own, back up, or share with a friend? Studios still don’t get it though…they’re always fighting the flow of progress.
