A Game Changer?
Release date pretty much dictates the financial contributions made by various movie venues, as this data from Adams Media Research suggests. There has been concern recently that DVD sales are slowing. If that continues, it will be easier to shift release dates to some sort of window where DVD release and pay per view or video on demand release dates are concurrent. That would dramatically improve the revenue earned by VOD, PPV or other forms of network delivery, at the expense of physical media. The issue here is fundamentally less cusotmer demand or technology platform, and more the prosaic issue of "when can I watch it?"
