So, FOX is restructuring its output so that rental outlets will only offer bare-bones editions of their movies, and if you want the special features, you have to buy the movie. This really pisses me off, first of all, most people don't care about bonus features at all, so it doesn't matter, but for those of us that do, we feel betrayed. I check out a lot of bonus features on Netflixed movies, and now FOX thinks it's a smart business plan for them to have to produce two separate DVDs just to screw over me and my ilk? I haven't made the leap yet, but downloading movies is looking better and better every day. If I'm not going to get any bonus features anyway, what's the advantage of renting over downloading?
