With over 50,000,000 installed home theaters - most now with HDTV sets - this could be more powerful of a distribution chain than going to the theaters.

I know with Indy films - home video outsells theatrical by 10x to 20x depending on the film. Not sure how this would work with a blockbuster.

Personally, I just will not go to the theater anymore. Nothing gets me out with the masses. I will wait for the Blu-ray and watch it in my theater. That's why I invested in it and its how I enjoy the room. If they want my money sooner - they know how to get my $$$...
