So Bluray disc can be copied to . Now the question is, is it possible for two persons share the cost of one bluray? By paying more, the other person get the physical copy while the other get the digital version. I don't see why this is not beneficial from all angles.
Firstly for Sony, they can sell more Blu-ray by doing this.
Wait.. isn't it by providing digital copy, Sony can only sell one Blu-ray instead of two?
True, but however, Blu-ray is not a necessity for a lot of people. Most people just happy to watch normal Dvd. I'm talking about opportunity gain. For example: there are people who love to buy a digital movie via sites like itunes. So, instead of paying full price on itunes, they can share instead and get the digital copy. And Sony can convert some of this market.
By sharing cost, customers can buy Bluray cheaper than usual. When it is cheaper, it usually means more quantity.
This however, just a theory. There might be some sort of copy protection to prevent this, I don't know. But even if it's not, it's not a loss for Sony and Blu-rays.
