Since Sony mostly all replication for blu-ray for example, it seems they are the only ones (and their partner Fox) to who get good deals.<br><br>I can understand why they would do this. Interestingly enough Fox and Sony.. hmm... what a partnership..makes you wonder what kind of deals were made back in the format war since they are buddying so much. <br><br>Not to happy about this in general. I don't want Sony and Fox giving me home videos in retail. Their movies are almost always overpriced and quality is awful and them owning together MGM and Sony owning a bunch of other studios this is not good any way you look at it. At least not for home entertainment]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Bozster]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 1st 2009 7:11AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Paramount considering home video partnership with Sony, Fox]]></title><link>http://enghddev.weblogsinc.com/2009/07/01/paramount-considering-home-video-partnership-with-sony-fox/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://enghddev.weblogsinc.com/2009/07/01/paramount-considering-home-video-partnership-with-sony-fox/</guid><description><![CDATA[I've been ripped off enough times by Fox to never plan to do business with them again. I mean full on lies, like the DVD edition of The Abyss that was packaged as anamorphic that was actually 4:3 with letter boxing (and the subsequent argument with the store trying to return the f---ing thing because apparently returning something that isn't what it says it is on the box is "copyright infringement" - yes, that's what Fox has told retailers.)<br><br>Screw 'em. Something tells me I'll be buying fewer and fewer discs over the next few years, what with the dishonesty of the distributors and the decision to use an HD format with a flawed and draconian DRM system.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[squiggleslash]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 1st 2009 8:53PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Paramount considering home video partnership with Sony, Fox]]></title><link>http://enghddev.weblogsinc.com/2009/07/01/paramount-considering-home-video-partnership-with-sony-fox/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://enghddev.weblogsinc.com/2009/07/01/paramount-considering-home-video-partnership-with-sony-fox/</guid><description><![CDATA[Perhaps this a partial explaination of why Paramount licenced BD+? To do business with Fox (who loves BD+ madly)?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Matt Wright]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 1st 2009 10:45AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Paramount considering home video partnership with Sony, Fox]]></title><link>http://enghddev.weblogsinc.com/2009/07/01/paramount-considering-home-video-partnership-with-sony-fox/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://enghddev.weblogsinc.com/2009/07/01/paramount-considering-home-video-partnership-with-sony-fox/</guid><description><![CDATA[More likely they bought the sales pitch (more fool them.) Fox isn't going to care if Paramount's discs have BD+ on them. They only care if their own discs (including those containing content they're licensing from Paramount) have BD+.<br><br>Fox bought into BD+ too early for it to be a factor, but it would be more likely that Paramount, convinced that BD+ is somehow not a ridiculously stupid idea, would have been impressed by Fox supporting it than vice versa.<br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[squiggleslash]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jul 1st 2009 8:49PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Paramount considering home video partnership with Sony, Fox]]></title><link>http://enghddev.weblogsinc.com/2009/07/01/paramount-considering-home-video-partnership-with-sony-fox/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://enghddev.weblogsinc.com/2009/07/01/paramount-considering-home-video-partnership-with-sony-fox/</guid><description><![CDATA[Putting another company in charge of the billing and collecting of money sounds like a bad move to me.
