They're no different than Arrow or any of the other distributors who have caught up and surpassed them. What.a waste of a release when there's already better out there, and you know that.

5%, but since you're okay with moving backward and releasing inferior products to what's already out there, why don't you just buy DVD since that's still the biggest market share? What are you doing in a blu-ray forum if you honestly believe what's good enough to the basic population is good enough for everyone (because that would be DVD)?

Criterion doesn't need to release 4K movies they have their own strategy, and they're not mandated to jump on the bandwagon either.
