Thats good that they are getting it first but how is that going to stop piracy? It would prevent piracy if all were released at the same time.

| I don't get why they're doing it to stop piracy... Piracy will always happen, no matter when the DVD comes out. |

| JayMay ♥ Big, yellow duckie <3 YAYNESS for the Chinese GoF DVD. Oh man, they're getting it SO late, and they call this early?? *Shrugs* Well, I'm glad all the same, and since China is my neighbouring country, I'm glad all the more.
As for Piracy, no matter what they do, it will always be. They've tried before to stop it, and failed completely. They've tried again, and again failed.and so it goes on forever...I don't think this time it will be much different...
Love,

Still dont understand why it isnt a general release like the film i think it is unfair!
*Wishes she was director cos then we could do what the makers of Bubble have done and released it in cinema, DVD and on TV at the same time*

I think at some level, they want as much fuss over it as possible - and the best way to do that is to rub it in the face of various countries that it is coming out in AMERICA before it hits Europe, which is the home of Potter sorry - i'm really hung up on that....

__________________ I gotta go back to the muggle world,
they're gonna try and tell me this wasn't, that none of this happened,

We spent time here. We made friends here. That's a part of us.
Cause Hogwarts is bigger than any of us, of any of it's founders,
and it's going to be around long after we're gone.
Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.
No matter how long you're away from it, there's always a way back. |

Wow. February 20th? Lucky them! Not that it's coming out much later, but wow.
I'm still amazed that the UK is getting the DVD so much later than the US. I wonder what the reason is for that...

That schedueling thing is weird. LOL I wonder if that's just the official word for everything? "We don't really know why we have to do it this way!" "Really?" "Yes." "Er, say 'schedueling.'" "Oh, that sounds good!"
Of course, I got all excited. I was like, "It's coming out so much later... maybe they'll do the DVD Launch after all!" Heh.
