I seems like a really bad idea to irritate the world's largest company as a content provider. AFAIK they change out the entire DVD section in each store each quarter, and wouldn't it just be a coincidence that all of Universal's movies just aren't on the shelf any longer? Or that any that would have dropped into the Value Bins stay at $10 or higher? I know physical media sales are down, but actively trying to hurt sales at a large retail partner that can either actively promote your products, or ignore and put out only one spot for your newest release seems like a really bad idea.
