And with digital distribution the norm now, what's the holdup? The movie industry would be rolling in cash if, instead of folks at home heading to the torrents to find dodgy handicam recordings of recently released movies, they simultaneously released a $10 rental download. And why don't console games have worldwide DL releases? I've deliberately not purchased several games in the past years in protest over having to wait six months more than my US colleagues. IF YOU WANT MY MUNZ, LET ME GIVE YOU THEM.
