Message: <blockquote data-quote="Knots4ever" data-source="post: 379209" data-attributes="member: 4475">WBD is not going to invest in printing and promoting Blu Ray discs of Dallas. It is simply not part of their business model. I said this months ago.A lot of people were hanging on to the idea that during the year of Dallas' 45th anniversary WBD would release a Blu Ray boxset of the remastered HD version. That was always unlikely and we are now at the end of the anniversary year and in the middle of Xmas sales; no boxset has appeared.WBD is making cuts left, right and centre. It is concentrating on its core brands and on Max. It has publicly stated that it has moved away from Max being the exclusive home of its back catalogue and is licensing individual shows and packages globally to third parties.Making the decision to produce a boxset would not only be contrary to its business plan but also come with initial costs that are not guaranteed to be recouped. That simply means it won't be done. Unfortunate, yes. But of course more than understandable given WBD's situation, its business priorities, the ever diminishing market for physical media and the overall economic situation.</blockquote>
