Whould you spend $30 for a video-on-demand Disney film?

[Charlie91xo]

Definitely not. $30?! Firstly, it's way too expensive. Secondly, I always like to have a physical copy.

[DarthPrime]

No way. I prefer to have a physical copy.

[Gurgi30]

Absolutely ridiculous, not a chance. I have an infinitely small interest in downloadable media unless it's on Steam.

Song of the South in its entirety and uncensored? (And recordable to my DVD Recorder from my cable box?) ----- YES.


Any other movie? NO.

[tightlacedboots]

That is ridiculous. The only way I could really see someone paying that much is if they don't like movie theaters or don't want to wait for the dvd. Or maybe have a very large family. But DVDs come out a lot faster nowadays. I think most people would wait to save, say, $15 give or take (to own it) or a lot more money to rent it.

I can't tell if this VOD thing is for a one time viewing or not? I never used the downloadable netflix type stuff, but I'm thinking this is not a copy you own for long.

I'm gonna laugh if the movie they test this with is like the extended version of Avatar.

Obviously it's ridiculous, but I suppose there could be a few select people who'd be willing to pay it instead of fighting the movie theatre crowds. I think it would have to be released the exact same time as it is in theatres though. For example, I could see families preferring to stay home and watch the hot new Christmas release instead of braving the cold and rounding up all the youngins, etc.

Since it's all digital they might as well try it to see what the max amount suckers are willing to spend..

[dvdjunkie]

This is really ridiculous. Pay-per-view for sporting events - WWE, TNA, UFC, and the like - is $49.99, but that is entirely something different.

Now if Disney were to announce that you could only get the uncensored versions of "Melody Time", "Fantasia", and "Song of the South" and, if you paid this outrageous $30 per film, they had better be like other pay-per-views, good for 24 hours, so you could watch them as many times as you could. I might be coerced into spending the money. I don't buy any pay-per-view stuff because like most of you here, I want the physical property in my hands and in my collection.
